How it works : Agrus Kos, Eternal Soldier
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The last ability triggers whenever Agrus Kos, Eternal Soldier becomes the target of an ability that targets it and no other object or player. It doesn't matter who controls the ability.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If an ability has multiple targets, but it's targeting Agrus Kos with all of them, the last ability triggers. In that case, each of the copies will also target only one of those creatures.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
Any creature you control that can't be targeted by the copied ability (due to protection abilities, targeting restrictions, or any other reason) is just ignored. No copy is created for that creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
The controller of Agrus Kos controls all the copies, no matter which player controlled the original ability. That player chooses the order the copies are put on the stack. The original ability will be on the stack beneath those copies and will resolve last.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
If the ability that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copies will have the same mode. Their controller can't choose a different one.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
If the ability that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was put on the stack, the copies have the same value of X.
No other card is named in this ruling.
