If I sac a Blazing Torch equipped to a Vedalken Heretic to deal damage to a player will I draw a card?
Asked by djdauenbaugh 13 years ago
Will Vedalken Heretic equipped with Blazing Torch tap and sac'ing allow me to draw a card? Want a 2nd opinion. I think Blazing Torch does the dmg, not Vedalken Heretic so the answer is no, I can't draw a card. Also looking for inspiration into better equipment for Vedalken Heretic or whether I should go another route. Thanks to all who comment.

no you will not draw a card.
blazing torch reads: " tap, sacrifice blazing torch: blazing torch deals 2 damage to target creature or player."
so yes blazing torch deals damage not the heretic.

Viridian Longbow , Hermetic Study , Power of Fire and Psionic Gift are what you need. Quicksilver Dagger if you're really feeling dangerous.

I am always ninja'd cos I always go find the section in the official rulebook that applies to the situation and quote it. The problem is by the time I find it, somebody else did a much simplified answer. It makes me grrrrr!
Anyway, do you want suggestions that are purely Green/Blue?

Yes, you are correct Blazing Torch deals the damage not Vedalken Heretic so you would not draw from it.
You could do Ophidian Eye , or you could try Cunning Sparkmage + Basilisk Collar for removal.
