Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What does Shatterstorm do?

Answer: Buries all artifacts

This card is in 5th Edition, Classic 6th Edition, Antiquities, and Discontinued sets. It is a sorcery that is usually classified as uncommon.

2. What is the power/toughness of Baron Sengir?

Answer: 5/5

It also has flying and can regenerate. Whenever a creature is damaged by it, and if that creature is destroyed that turn, Baron Sengir gets +2/+2. In the storylines, he is the Master of Vampires.

3. What is the highest card in terms of power/toughness that comes in the Onslaught: Devastation preconstructed deck?

Answer: Towering Baloth

Towering Baloth is 7/6. Krosan Groundshaker is 6/6, Tephraderm is 4/5, and Krosan Collosus is 9/9, but is not included in the Devastation PCD. Power is its damage that it can deal, and toughness is how much damage it can absorb, i.e. health points. Towering Baloth also has a new ability called Morph, which lets you play it face down as a 2/2 creature for three mana, and turn it over any time for its morph cost.

These payments are generally lower than the card's actual casting cost, and it also hides from the opponent what the card really is.

This can hinder their attack, since you can turn it over any time and block any of thier creatures. This makes it impossible for your opponent to know the full risk of attacking.

4. What does the flavour text say on Grafted Skullcap? The Urza's Saga edition please, not the 7th edition.

Answer: "Let go your mind, mine is fitter."

This is a rare card that lets you draw a card at the beginning of your next draw step, but at the end of your turn, you must discard your hand. "Every Day..." is the 7th edition text. If you picked that, you should have read the question more carefully.

5. True or False: Smoke is rare.

Answer: True

When it is in play, players cannot untap more than one creature during their untap phase. It is an enchantment that costs 2 red mana to cast. It is in Unlimited, 3rd and 4th edition sets.

6. True or false: Shield Wall has banding.

Answer: False

Shield Wall is an instant, not a wall. The wall called Wall of Shields has banding, but they are two different cards.

7. Which of the following disenchant spells has a buyback:3 option on it?

Answer: Allay

This means you can return it to your hand for 3 mana when you play it, so it does not go in your graveyard. This means you can play it several times in a row.

8. What is shown on the picture for Strafe?

Answer: The Weatherlight

The picture is by Jim Nelson. It is from the Planeshift set. The airship Weatherlight is the main story focus for many sets such as Planeshift, Weatherlight (duh) and Exodus. It involves the adventures of Sisay, Gerrard, Tahngarth, Squee, Mirri, and Hanna, who are the ship's crew, and Urza, who built the ship to prepare for the Phyrexian invasion that he foresaw.

9. What set is the card Devouring Strossus from?

Answer: Invasion

It is a black 9/9 creature. It is also tied with Draco from Planeshift as the most powerful flying creature.

10. Which characters die at the end of Apocalypse?

Answer: Urza and Gerrard

The two legends die destroying Yawgmoth, saving Dominaria and ending the Phyrexian invasion.
