WL(U)/67(U) |
Text(6th/7th):Whenever a creature comes into play, ~this~ deals 2 damage to
it.
This card has a "comes into play" triggered ability (see Rule E.3). Each
time a creature comes into play, you first apply any continuous effects
of cards in play (such as Humility or whatever), then you put this
ability on the stack. When it resolves, the creature takes 2 damage. You
can play instants on the stack before letting this resolve.
[D'Angelo 1999/05/01]
This is not a targeted ability, so it deals damage to Deadly Insect and
other creatures that cannot be targeted by spells and abilities.
[D'Angelo 1997/09/02]
