Re: Double X
The way Ravenous is currently written, no, this does not do that. Ravenous says it enters with X counters. Saying it twice won't double it. You will just have one replacement effect that says "Enter with X counters" and then the second just "Wait, instead of that, enter with X counter...

Re: Ugly Baby?
To start with, the answer to your initial question is "Yes" but that doesn't do what you ultimately want to do. You can't use Reminder Text to drive functionality. Which means that you need to make sure that "Fabricate 1" and "Fabricate Shapeshifter 1" do exactly what a...

Re: THREE QUESTIONS
Both read slightly weird in my opinion but either conveys what you need it to. Of the two, I probably prefer the first though I am not sure you are really wrong either way.

Re: Casting plotted spells with flash
The rules for Plot spell out exactly when you can cast it: on a later turn, in your Main Phase, when the stack is empty. Plotting a card with Flash or being able to cast things as though they had Flash don't get around the inherent restriction of Plot that limits when you can cast the spell. So, no,...

Re: THREE QUESTIONS
Nothing about Splice targets so not being able to target mana abilities doesn't really matter. If you don't want to splice onto mana abilities, which is probably the right way to do things, you will need to say it.

Re: Cards like Surge to Victory
materpillar In terms of the 3 cards in question, yes, once the first copy of Deluge resolves and you cast one of the Epic spells, you are done. The other spells can no longer be cast because Epic prevents it. Copying a card and casting the copy is still casting. You would need something like Hive M...

Re: single card nonbo
Yep. Basically, the first ability ensures the trigger doesn't let anyone go back up to 10 if they are lower than that. That could be desired but probably best to spell it out in the trigger.
But, if you want people to go back to 10 from 5 for example, you will need to find another way to do it.

Re: Does This Do This?
Yes, you can make the Hellkite arbitrarily big (infinite does not exist in magic; you do need to choose an actual value). You can choose to apply Training Grounds cost reduction first to get the ability down to {1} mana and then Sam's ability reduces that {1} to {0}. Also, I will echo void_nothing's...

Re: Cards Missing for Collection
Looks like there may be some other missing cards. This time it is the MKM Special Guest cards. I think all are there except I can't add foil versions. In my case, I am trying to add a foil version of Tireless Tracker.

Re: Karador, Ghost Chieftain - Quest for Control
My main issue is the MV limitation. Karmic Guide gets me any creature (and that is primarily what I am going to want with it) whereas Angel only gets 4 MV or less. Granted, it is any permanent, but still somewhat limiting. Compared to Sun Titan , it does get me Yawgmoth, Spike Weaver , and False Pro...

No, you cannot. Both Flashback and FoW's "cast for free" ability are alternate costs. And you can only use one alternate cost when casting a spell. And only Flashback lets you cast if from your graveyard.

If you're able to resolve an Eerie Ultimatum this is probably the last thing you'd care about, but if you diversify your basic lands to half regular and half snow-covered ones you'll get more lands from the Ultimatum. That is a pretty good point. And might come into play if someone were to play Fie...
