Interaction between Brudiclad & Mystic Reflection

Asked by azuriel23 3 years ago

Lets say I have a Inferno Titan and Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer in play. If I cast Mystic Reflection targetting the Inferno Titan while Brudiclad's trigger is on the stack, can I change all my Tokens to Inferno Titan ?

Which scenario?

  1. Myr (Token) -> Inferno Titan (Token) -> Choose the Inferno Titan (Token) -> Change all my tokens to Inferno Titan
  2. Myr (Token) -> Choose the Myr (Token) -> Change all my tokens to Myr (Token) -> Myr (Token) becomes an Inferno Titan (Token)

Mystic Reflection creates a replacement effect when it resolves. Replacement effects do not use the stack and simply modify an event. Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer attempts to make a 2/1 Myr token. The token enters as a copy of Inferno Titan because of the Mystic Reflection replacement effect. Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer then allows you to make all of your tokens a copy of one of your tokens and the new Inferno Titan token is a valid choice for this part of the ability.

It should be noted that when Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer changes all your tokens to copies Inferno Titan , it does not trigger the ETB triggered ability of Inferno Titan . The tokens were already on the battlefield and did not enter.

So in the above stated scenario, barring any other interactions, you would only get an additional Inferno Titan (originally the 2/1 blue myr token that was changed by Mystic Reflection ).

You are able to capitalize on the tokens (now Inferno Titan s) attacking though
