I have been fascinated about constructing a Slicer, Employed Muscle commander deck the place I load it up with tools/auras and have it reap the “on assault/fight” advantages a number of occasions a flip cycle. The one downside: is that this the way it really works?
I do know that if, for instance, an tools you management grants hexproof to an opponent’s creature, you continue to cannot goal it for the reason that creature has the key phrase and you do not management the creature (defined right here). However is the final rule, subsequently, that if an tools/aura managed by you grants a key phrase or capability (i.e. “creature positive aspects/has ‘X'”), it advantages the opponent, whereas if it would not grant the key phrase or capability it advantages you?
For instance, take Diamond Pickaxe. It has:
Geared up creature will get +1/+1 and has “Each time this creature assaults, create a Treasure token.”
So when an opponent assaults with my Slicer outfitted with Diamond Pickaxe, who creates the treasure token? I assume the opponent, on this case, for the reason that treasure creation is a capability given to the creature, which my opponent controls. Then again, I assume that if Slicer was as a substitute outfitted with a Bitterthorn, Nissa’s Animus, which says, partly:
Each time outfitted creature assaults, you might search your library for a primary land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
then when Slicer assaults on my opponent’s flip, it is nonetheless me that will get to seek for a land, for the reason that capability is on the tools, which I management. Have I acquired the fitting understanding in each circumstances, and in both case, the place is that this addressed within the guidelines?
