Noosegraft mob interaction with cast
Asked by Bankbyday 7 years ago
Noosegraft Mob is on the battlefield opponent casts Swords to Plowshares mobs triggered ability goes on the stack. Now if opponent casts a second Swords to Plowshares in response to the trigger. Would I get 0,1, or 2 tokens?
I apologize about the lack of the link to noose... doesn't seem to recognize it.
Yes, you would get 0, 1, or 2 tokens. If the Noosegraf Mob has no counters on it, so you cannot remove any, you'll get 0 tokens. If it has ample counters on it (like the 5 it started with), and neither Swords to Plowshares are targeting it (nor anything else removing it), you'll get 2 tokens, one from each trigger. If, however, the second Swords to Plowshares is targeting the Noosegraf Mob you'll get 1 token from the trigger that went above the swords, then lose the mob and not be able to remove the counter when the first trigger resolves.

that is because there is no "t" in Noosegraf Mob. You would get 1 token. The trigger from the second Swords goes on top of it and resolves putting a token in. Then the mob is exiled and when the trigger for the first swords tries to resolve no +1/+1 counter is removed and therefore no token is created.
