Does Unsettled Mariner counter Grave Pact?

Asked by meman0320 4 years ago

Unsettled Mariner says it counters spells or abilities that target creatures you control OR player. Since Grave Pact mentions "each other player" does that mean it is targeting that player. OR does it ONLY work if the card in question specifically says "target player" I was also wondering if Aegis of the Gods worked against grave pact.

the only effects that every target, are cards that specifically use the word "target", or an aura that is being cast. an aura that is being put into play without being cast does not target. therefore, Grave Pact does not target. thus, neither Unsettled Mariner nor Aegis of the Gods help protect against Grave Pact.
