Chandra, the Firebrand + Shrine of Burning Rage

Asked by BerkleyJL 13 years ago

If I use Chandra, the Firebrand 's -2 ability to copy a Shock , do I get 2 counters on my Shrine of Burning Rage or just one because I didn't "cast" the copy?

Since you do not cast the copy, you only get one counter. Shrine of Burning Rage gets a counter when you cast a red spell. Since Chandra's effect does not specifically state that the copy is cast, it is not. This is true of all effects that copy spells: if the word cast is not used, then the copy is simply placed on the stack by the effect.

That is, in fact, what I expected. Still it's gonna be crazy when I use her -2 to copy a Volt Charge then Proliferate the 2 back onto her, as well as proliferate the counters on the shrine twice.
