Pierced Heart/Bloodletting curse combo ruling

Asked by Turtleburger 5 years ago

If I have 1 Cure of the Pierced Heart on the field and then 2 Curse of Bloodletting, would the combo deal 2,3, or 4 damage?

From Curse of Bloodletting s rulings - If more than one Curse of Bloodletting enchants the same player, damage dealt to that player will double for each one (two of them will end up multiplying the damage by four, three of them by eight, and four of them by sixteen).

Curse of the Pierced Heart

Whenever more than one replacement effect attempts to modify a certain event, the affected player or permanent’s controller decides which one to apply. After that, if there are still applicable replacement effects, they are then applied.

In this scenario, the order of the replacement effects don’t matter. What’s important here is that one Curse of Bloodletting ’s effect will be applied, doubling the 1 damage from Curse of the Pierced Heart . However, the replacement effect from the second Curse of Bloodletting is still applicable so it doubles again, for a grand total of 4 damage dealt.
