General Kreat, the Boltbringer

{2}{R}

Legendary Creature — Goblin Soldier

Whenever one or more Goblins you control attack, create a 1/1 red Goblin creature token that's tapped and attacking.

Whenever another creature you control enters, General Kreat deals 1 damage to each opponent.

To cross swords with her is a shockingly bad idea.

Rulings

  • 2024-11-08

    Although the token created by General Kreat's first ability enters attacking, it was never declared as an attacker. Abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger. If there are any costs to have a creature attack, those costs won't apply to the token.

  • 2024-11-08

    If General Kreat enters at the same time as one or more other creatures you control, its last ability will trigger for each of those creatures.

  • 2024-11-08

    You choose which player, planeswalker, or battle the token is attacking. It doesn't need to be the same player, planeswalker, or battle that any of the other Goblins are attacking.
