Split Cards in Edh/Commander

Asked by ramonthebadass 10 years ago

So im in the process of making a new Edh deck and i have some questions about split cards. 1: Can i run Breaking / Entering in a Blue/Black Edh and use it only for breaking?? 2: Now lets say this Blue/Black Edh turns into a Grixis Colored one does Breaking / Entering count as 2 cards or just one?? 3: Lets say im playing with Breaking / Entering in my hand and i want to fuse them it says i can cast both halves and my opponent wants to counter does he/she counter both Breaking / Entering or do they pick which one they wish to counter??

1. The color identity of Breaking / Entering is UBR, so no.

2. Breaking / Entering counts as one card in your 99+1.

3. If a spell would counter Breaking / Entering , it would counter both halves.

Remember that a split card is still a single card; it just has two sets of characteristics. When it's on the stack, it's a single spell with a set of combined characteristics if fused. If it is not fused, it has only the characteristics of the half that was cast (at least until it leaves the stack).
