Resto Angel + Kitchen Finks

Swizzie2000 · 01-01-2013, 07:05 PM

I just got into a debate with someone on Cockatrice, so I want to confirm the ruling here.

Restoration Angel's abililty trigger targets Kitchen Finks. Kitchen Finks gets bolted in response to trigger, then Finks trigger resolves and gains 2 life.

Does Resoration Angel's original trigger resolve or is it countered upon resolution?

Thanks,

Swizzie

It's countered on resolution for having no legal targets - since the Finks leaves and re-enters the battlefield, it becomes a different creature with no relation to its previous existence. Angel's only target is no longer legal, so the trigger is countered by game rules.

That is what I thought, thanks for quick response!
