Moonmist Question
Asked by ShadowLand 12 years ago
So I just want to make sure I did this right.
When I cast Moonmist , I generally do it after the declare attackers and declare blockers phases of combat, to make sure my werewolves and wolves are dealing their most effective damage. When they transform (I am assuming because it is an instant they transform instantly) they would then deal the transformed power to the opponents creature that turn correct?
Such as in the case of Kruin Outlaw Flip transforming, if blocked by a creature, does the doublestrike take effect directly to the player because it cannot be blocked by less than 2 creatures, the same for the other werewolves I control?

does it still have doublestrike on the blocked creature then?

It absolutely will deal double strike damage to the blocking creature

Yes they would deal their transformed damage to the the defending player's blockers, but no the blocks would not be invalidated after the fact due to Kruin Outlaw Flip s effect. The game only checks for legal blocks when blockers are declared.
Once a creature is blocked, it remains so for the rest of combat, regardless of the block becoming illegal or even nonexistent (such as an attacking creature gaining protection or a creature leaving play).

TL;DR Summary -
The transformed creatures deal damage as their transformed selves. However Kruin Outlaw Flip will not deal damage to the player, as a creature, once blocked, remains blocked to the end of combat - the Terror of Kruin Pass Flip will deal double strike damage to its blocker.

In the 1st case, you are completely correct. In the 2nd, you are incorrect, because once a creature has been declared as blocked, nothing you do will change it's blocked status.
