    Once a creature has been blocked, Rikku's first ability won't cause it to become unblocked.

  • 2025-06-06

    To move a counter from one permanent to another, the counter is removed from the first permanent and put on the second. Any abilities that care about a counter being removed from or put onto a permanent will apply.
