Anthem of Rakdos

Enchantment, 2BRR (5)
Whenever a creature you control attacks, it gets +2/+0 until end of turn and Anthem of Rakdos deals 1 damage to you.

Hellbent - As long as you have no cards in hand, if a source you control would deal damage to a creature or player, it deals double that damage to that creature or player instead.

Illus. Ralph Horsley

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 5/1/2006: The first ability triggers once for each creature you attack with. If you attack with three creatures, for example, they'll each get +2/+0 and you'll be dealt 3 damage.
  • 5/1/2006: The hellbent ability doubles the damage dealt to you by Anthem of Rakdos itself.
  • 5/1/2006: If damage that would be dealt to a player or creature is affected by both Anthem of Rakdos and a damage prevention effect, that player or that creature's controller chooses the order to apply the effects. In most cases that player will want to prevent damage, then double what's left.
  • 5/1/2006: If a source you control would deal damage to multiple creatures and/or players simultaneously, all of that damage is doubled.
