Regenerate and Elspeth Tirel

Asked by Wrath_unleashed 13 years ago

When using Elspeth Tirel and using her -5, can a creature be regenerated? Say I have Elspeth at 6, drop her 5 and my opponent pays one manna to regenerate River Boa?

Elspeth Tirel

Her ultimate ability has no "can't be regenerated" clause like you see on Wrath of God , Damnation and others, so yes, your opponent is entitled to regenerate any of his creatures that he can.

i would think so since Elspeth Tirel 's ultimate ability says destroy and a creature with regenerate could only do so when it would be sent to the graveyard via destruction.

if Elspeth Tirel 's ability said "Each player sacrifices all permanents except for tokens and lands" then you could not regenerate.

Thank you, that's what we thought, but we wanted to make sure that was the case.
