Official rulings

Two official rulings apply to Elder Arthur Maxson, newest first.

  • A creature’s training ability triggers only when both that creature and a creature with greater power are declared as attackers. Increasing a creature’s power after attackers are declared won’t cause a training ability to trigger.
  • Once a creature’s training ability has triggered, destroying the other attacking creature or reducing its power won’t stop the creature with training from getting a +1/+1 counter.
