    Rules

  • An ability that triggers whenever you discard a card doesn’t give you permission to discard cards. You’ll need another effect that instructs or allows you to discard them.
  • An ability that triggers whenever you “cycle or discard” a card triggers only once if you cycle a card. The ability “Whenever you discard a card” is functionally identical to this ability; cycling is mentioned for clarity.
  • If a player discards a card during their cleanup step due to having too many cards in hand, any appropriate abilities that trigger on discarding that card trigger. If this happens, those triggered abilities are put onto the stack and players receive priority in that cleanup step to cast spells or activate abilities (normally, no players may take actions during a cleanup step). Another cleanup step is created following that one.
  • Some cards have an ability that triggers whenever you cycle any card. These triggered abilities resolve before you draw from the cycling ability.

    Rules

  • If enough -1/-1 counters are put on Bloodtracker at the same time to make its toughness 0 or less, the number of +1/+1 counters on it before it got any -1/-1 counters will be used to determine how many cards you draw. For example, if there are three +1/+1 counters on Bloodtracker and it gets six -1/-1 counters, you'll draw three cards. That's because Bloodtracker's triggered ability checks the creature's existence just before it leaves the battlefield, and it still has all those counters on it at that point.

    Flying

    Rules

  • Each creature with lifelink dealing combat damage causes a separate life-gaining event. For example, if two creatures you control with lifelink deal combat damage at the same time, Vampire Scrivener's firstability will trigger twice. However, if a single creature you control with lifelink deals combat damage to multiple creatures, players, planeswalkers, and/or battles at the same time (perhaps because it has trample or was blocked by more than one creature), the ability will trigger only once.
  • If Vampire Scrivener is dealt lethal damage at the same time that you gain or lose life during your turn, it won't receive a counter from its ability in time to save it.
  • If you gain an amount of life "for each" of something or "equal to the number" of something, that life is gained as one event and Vampire Scrivener's first ability triggers only once.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, life gained or lost by your teammate during your turn won't cause either of Vampire Scrivener's abilities to trigger, even though it caused your team's life total to increase or decrease.
  • The first ability of Vampire Scrivener triggers just once for each life-gaining or life-losing event, whether it's 1 life from Dazzling Angel or 4 life from Apothecary Stomper.
