I have been eager 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 instances 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 because the creature has the key phrase and you do not management the creature (defined right here). However is the overall rule, due to this fact, that if an tools/aura managed by you grants a key phrase or means (i.e. “creature good points/has ‘X'”), it advantages the opponent, whereas if it would not grant the key phrase or means it advantages you?
For example, take Diamond Pickaxe. It has:
Outfitted creature will get +1/+1 and has “Each time this creature assaults, create a Treasure token.”
So when an opponent assaults with my Slicer geared up with Diamond Pickaxe, who creates the treasure token? I assume the opponent, on this case, because the treasure creation is a capability given to the creature, which my opponent controls. Then again, I assume that if Slicer was as a substitute geared up with a Bitterthorn, Nissa’s Animus, which says, partly:
Each time geared up 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, because the means is on the tools, which I management. Have I received the precise understanding in each instances, and in both case, the place is that this addressed within the guidelines?
