To explain the corpse counter a bit, I believe it’s just meant as a reminder for paper magic that this should be exiled when it dies. Without the counter it’s much easier to forget, especially on complicated boards.

Then in LCI they introduced finality counters, which are the same thing except they actually have the rules text written into the counter now.
@Red_Mag38 ай бұрын
Appreciate Finality counters being introduced, as you can Hex Parasite them off if needed and actually remove the exile effect.

I'm sure it's already been said, but comments are good for the algorithm. The corpse counter is just there as a memory aid. A lot of cards with persistent effects use something similar, the one which comes to mind is that Black legend from m19, Isareth the Awakener, which upon reread also uses a corpse counter.

42:10 If the Tendrils was in their hand, they couldn't Beseech for a ritual because Gaea's Will was active, so the Tendrils would end up exiled.

I love when you have guests on. Youre able to entertain alone, much less talking nerdy mtg stuff with another mtg expert, so its always a treat. It has the same vibe as some eternal glory episodes but with game play:)

I’m not in the patreon (broke college student life) But i also wanna echo how cool it is to have guests on. Cause you know the format super well, but you don’t get to grind reps with a deck, and hearing people who have that knowledge is super insightful and fun! Thank you!

TIL Corpse Counters are from Alpha Corpse counters first appeared on Scavenging Ghoul in Alpha as an unnamed counter which was later errated to be a corpse counter. At the end of each turn, the Ghoul would gain a corpse counter for each creature that died that turn. It could then exchange a corpse counter to regenerate itself.
@dalemackenzie43208 ай бұрын
The corpse counter is only to help remind you which creatures will be exiled if they would leave the battlefield. If you somehow remove a corpse counter from a creature that was put onto the battlefield this way, the replacement effect that will exile it continues to apply. Similarly, moving the corpse counter onto another creature has no effect on that creature; the replacement effect will continue to apply to the original creature.
