Overpowering Attack and Nalfeshnee interaction

Asked by MartinEMcArthur 1 month ago

What happens if Overpowering Attack gets copied from Nalfeshnee’s ability? Would the copy just fizzle out, or would it result in another combat phase in addition to what the original grants?

Neotrup says... Accepted answer #1

The copy would untap all creatures you control that attacked this turn, but unless you're tapping them before the original resolves, that won't do much. If it's your main phase, it will create an additional combat step followed by an additional main phase, just like the original will, so you're turn structure will be that the next phase is combat, then main, then combat again, then main again. This will create an issue though, any creatures you attack with in your next combat will be tapped (unless they have vigilance), so they won't be able to attack during the following combat unless you can somehow untap them again. You will have a main phase between the combats to cast sorceries that can untap the creatures though.
