Yesterday on Can I flash mutate extra …

Question about the as-of-yet unreleased ability backup, as seen on Boon-Bringer Valkyrie.

In response to my Valkyrie's backup ability triggering, I choose to cast a Sea-Dasher Octopus targeting the the Valkyrie. I put the backup counters on Yargle, Glutton of Urborg. Does Yargle also gain the Octopus's abilities?

Alternatively, I cast Boon-Bringer Valkyrie and, in response to its backup trigger, I flash in an Exchange of Words. When it enters, I exchange the Valkyrie's text box with, IDK, a Swarm of Locus. I backup on Yargle again, because he's a good boy. Does he get the Swarm's ability instead?

And finally, and most importantly, I reanimate both the Valkyrie and Forge, Neverwinter Charlatan with Grusilda, Monster Masher, and the entering creature's backup triggers. Obviously I choose best boy. Does goodest boy ever get the abilities of both cards?

In the interest of everyone's patience, I've also bugged MaRo about that last question. Will post the answer here if/when I get one.

Fritzn on Grusilda and walking skyscraper?

backstory: wanting to build a commander deck with a silver bordered commander, but the 99 is a normal deck

So I'm curious if the creatures created by Grusilda, Monster Masher would be considered modified in the context of something like Walking Skyscraper?

Well, with Grusilda, Monster Masher specifically, it says that "their power is equal to their total power..."

So your Goyf would have a power equal to the # of card types in all graveyards PLUS all lands you control. (And it's toughness would be equal to that, +1)

Say I've got a Tarmogoyf that's gained all the abilities of Rubblehulk with... well, I actually can't think of a black-border effect that does this (by design?), but we'll say Grusilda, Monster Masher .

What is the creature's power and toughness? It's Schrodinger's cat as is right?

There is a Precon based on mutate in commander 2020, what are you even talking about.

The reason the card pool for mutate isn't that deep, and Grusilda, Monster Masher is a silver-bordered card, is because some card are just not meant to be combined. This card is stupid powerful and really hard to build fairly.

Neotrup on What happens if a creature …

If a creature somehow has two abilities that set power and toughness, they apply in timestamp order, so the most recent one is the one that applies. CDAs (like the ones you mentioned) apply first, regardless of timestamp, and if somehow one effect changes the number of creatures it applies to, you apply it before the ones that it would effect.

If two permanents enter the battlefield at the same time, you choose their relative timestamps.

All that said, there are two possible answers (the rules don't always provide definitive answers for silver border cards). Either you choose which one applies when it enters the battlefield (you're effectively picking their relative timestamps), or you add them. I would be inclined to say add them, because Grusilda, Monster Masher 's reminder text does say it has the combined power, which seems more in the spirit of the card.

For a definitive answer, you could always message Mark Rosewater, as he is the silver boarder rules manager and often answers questions on his Tumblr: https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/

I built a Grusilda, Monster Masher EDH deck for fun and I immediately ran into, like, 400 ways she can break the game but this is the one I'm the most curious about.

Say she combines Malignus and Pack Rat . Pack Rat says the Mashed Monster's power is equal to the number of Rats in play, but Malignus says that it's power is equal to half the highest life total.

Which one wins? What is the Mashed Monster's power?

There's ONE confirmed plane, from Unstable. Bablovia, described as a Mad Scientist world.

Its ruled by five Allied-colored groups, each ruling part of the world.

Order of the Widget- Blue/White. They're a technocracy, a government ruled by technology. They upgrade themselves into cyborgs... often for really specific reasons and because they can. Ruled by The Grand Calcutron, who is no longer human and all computer.

Agents of S.N.E.A.K.- Blue/Black. They are a kleptocracy, a government ran by thieves. They used to be a job board, but got obsessed with obtaining information and their toys and gadgets to the point spying was the only way to afford it. Also, they suck at their job. They're lead by Phoebe, Head of S.N.E.A.K.

League of Dastardly DOOM. They are an oligarchy... aka the most normal government type in the entire set. They're generic doomsday villains who all hate each other and constantly dispute whose in charge. Though they DO help support fledgling evil geniuses start. Their main leaders are Baron Von Count, The Big Idea, Mary O'Kill, and Grusilda, Monster Masher.

The Goblin Explosioneers are a Goblin kraterocratic and democratic kakistocracy... aka, they are somehow all ruled by the strong, the people... and the stupid. They like explosions. They worship hammers. They breed too fast for their bad ideas to wipe them out. Led by Ol' Buzzbark.

Crossbreed Labs is both a laboratory and a geniocracy, ruled by geniuses. They believe that one should be their true selves, usually by modifying themselves into crazy crossbreeds. Their end goal is a perfect society in which everyone can be themselves. Led by Dr. Julius Jumblemorph.

Lore dump, I know.
