Olor, Ageless Ascetic Question

Asked by mjh107 11 years ago

I have a question about his second ability. Do i have to gain life and pay one, draw a card for all my opponents lose life or does it trigger whenever I draw a card?

Here for the card reference: Olor, Ageless Ascetic Question

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic

His effect triggers when you gain life while he's on the field. For each instance of you gaining life (not for each life you gain) you may pay 1 to draw a card and make opponent's lose life.

It's whenever you gain life, and pay the (1).

What actually goes on the stack when you gain life is an object that looks like: "You may pay (1). If you do, draw a card and each opponent loses 1 life".

You didn't actually link the card in your question:
Oloro, Ageless Ascetic

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic 's second ability is a triggered ability. It triggers only when you gain life. It is not an activated abiliy, and it does not cause you to gain life.

When you gain life, the ability triggers. When the ability resolves, you have the option of paying 1. If you do, you draw a card and each opponent loses 1 life.

Also, you can put double brackets with no spaces around cards to link them.

[ [ oloro, ageless ascetic ] ] = Oloro, Ageless Ascetic
