Marauding Raptor, Spells and Abilities in Response
Asked by TanhelNet 2 years ago
Hello, i've got some problems in understanding Marauding Raptors second ability, especially its interactions with other abilities or spells. To simplify it: Is it possible to prevent an entering creature with toughness 2 or less to be killed by Marauding Raptor?
For example, does Drover of the Mightys first ability give it the additional stats before it gets killed by the dino?
Or can i cast something like Sudden Spinnerets or put a counter with Basri's Solidarity on a creature to save it?
RSVP at your own risk - Thank you very much :)

Drover of the Mighty and Sudden Spinnerets work. Drover's ability is a static effect, so if you control a Dinosaur it will enter as a 3/3 and be a 3/3 the entire time (it wouldn't actually trigger things like Mentor of the Meek because it doesn't enter as a 1/1). Sudden Spinnerets can be used in response to Marauding Raptor's trigger as you said, and will keep the creature alive.
Basri's Solidarity won't because it's a sorcery, so you can't cast it until after Marauding Raptor's ability resolves.
