Destroying an indestructible artifact with Hoard-Smelter Dragon still gives the dragon the +X/+0 right?

Asked by Gamer7129 14 years ago

If I targeted my own Darksteel Sentinel with Hoard smelter's ability, would my dragon still get the +6/+0 even though the Sentinel never left the battlefield?

Yes. Your right. There is a valid target but because the creatures doesn't get destroyed the ability still resolves as much as it can.

Therefore The dragon still gets the bonus.

Tom Martell does just that in an online draft video that was posted recently. Blew my mind! He targeted his own darksteel sentinel and pumped his dragon to 11/5! and did it again and again... So cool.

This relationship is the same on Engulfing Slagwurm . The creature doesn't have to be destroyed for you to gain life.

w00t.
