Training

Keywords · beginner

Training lets a smaller creature learn from a bigger ally. Whenever a creature with training attacks alongside another attacking creature with greater power, put a +1/+1 counter on the creature with training.

How it works

• The trigger checks as attackers are declared. At least one other attacker must have power greater than the training creature's power.
• The training creature gets one permanent +1/+1 counter.

Rules notes

• A creature can keep training over many turns, eventually outgrowing its mentors.
• Training counts power at the time the ability resolves, so pumping a fellow attacker first can enable a trigger that otherwise would not happen.
