    Trample

    Rules

  • Effects that modify the target creature’s power and/or toughness, such as the effect of Giant Growth or Glorious Anthem, will apply to the creature no matter when they started applying. The same is true for counters that affect the target creature’s power and toughness and effects that switch its power and toughness.
  • The activated ability overwrites all previous effects that set the target creature’s base power and/or toughness to specific values. Other effects that set its base power and/or toughness that start to apply after Creeperhulk’s ability resolves will overwrite Creeperhulk’s effect.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Trample

    Rules

  • Creatures that can’t be the target of abilities can have +1/+1 counters put on them by Sheltering Ancient’s cumulative upkeep ability because it doesn’t target them. The same is true for creatures with protection from green or protection from any other quality Sheltering Ancient has.
  • If no opponent controls a creature, you can’t pay the upkeep and must sacrifice Sheltering Ancient.
  • You may choose a different creature to put each counter on, but you can also choose the same creature multiple times. The creatures don’t have to be controlled by the same opponent.
  • Paying cumulative upkeep is always optional. If it’s not paid, the permanent with cumulative upkeep is sacrificed. Partial payments of the total cumulative upkeep cost can’t be made. For example, if a permanent with “cumulative upkeep {1}” has three age counters on it when its cumulative upkeep ability triggers, it gets another age counter and then its controller chooses to either pay {4} or sacrifice the permanent.
