If you control two creatures that share two creature types would Coat of Arms give them +1/+1 or +2/+2?
Asked by rushtowait 14 years ago
If you control 2 creatures that has 2 creature type specifically, like krosanbeast,does Coat of Arms 's effect gives both of them +1/+1 each or +2/+2 each ?
It says "each other creature that shares at least one type" so I would say that means each individual creature can only be a single trigger.
So for 2 Krosan Beast , each would give the other a +1/+1 making each a 2/2 (without threshold.)

Coat of Arms only counts one bonus per creature according to it's types to all creatures who share a type in common with it.
The other way around would be a nightmare with a couple of Shapeshifters with Changeling.

Coat of Arms only counts the creatures that share a type when applying it's bonuses. As long as at least 1 type is shared with another creature, the number of types it shares doesn't matter. The reminder text on the M10 Coat of Arms gives you a pretty good example.

Here is a good example:
For each creature in play, count the number of creatures in play that share at least one creature type with it. That creature gets +1/+1 for each of those creatures.
For example, I control a Viashino Warrior, two Viashino Shamans, and a Human Shaman. You control two Human Soldiers, a Bird Soldier, and a Bird Warrior. The creatures get:
Viashino Warrior - +3/+3 (Viashino Shaman, Viashino Shaman, Bird Warrior). Each Viashino Shaman - +3/+3 (Viashino Warrior, Viashino Shaman, Human Shaman). Human Shaman - +4/+4 (Viashino Shaman, Viashino Shaman, Human Soldier, Human Soldier). Each Human Soldier - +3/+3 (Human Shaman, Human Soldier, Bird Soldier). Bird Soldier - +3/+3 (Human Soldier, Human Soldier, Bird Warrior). Bird Warrior - +2/+2 (Viashino Warrior, Bird Soldier).
And that's about it. Thank the internet for this answer!
