soaring thought-thief multiple triggers

Asked by raphael75 2 years ago

Question about Soaring Thought-Thief's last ability. If I control 2 or more Soaring Thought-Thiefs, does the last ability trigger once for each one?

Say I have 7 Rogues and of them, 2 are Soaring Thought-Thief. If I attack with all 7, would my opponent mill 4 cards?

Each Thought-Thief's ability would trigger separately--as long as the condition for a triggered ability is met, that ability will trigger. Since each Thief requires the same thing to happen, if one would trigger they all would.

Part of the confusion may stem from the fact that the cards are named the same thing, but make no mistake: each Thief is considered its own permanent with no direct affiliation with the others.

What Omniscience said. Whenever a card uses its name in an ability, read it as "this card" unless it specifically says "cards named X" (or creatures, permanents, etc) such as Seven Dwarves.
