As Door of Destinies enters the battlefield, choose a creature type.
Whenever you cast a spell of the chosen type, put a charge counter on Door of Destinies.
Creatures you control of the chosen type get +1/+1 for each charge counter on Door of Destinies.1
Illus. Larry MacDougall
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 4/1/2008: If you cast a creature spell of the chosen type, Door of Destinies will get a charge counter before the creature enters the battlefield. The creature will enter the battlefield with the additional boost to its power and toughness.

Flying, haste
When you cast Demigod of Revenge, return all cards named Demigod of Revenge from your graveyard to the battlefield.1
Illus. Izzy
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 5/1/2008: This ability triggers when you cast Demigod of Revenge as a spell. It won't trigger if Demigod of Revenge is put directly onto the battlefield.
- 5/1/2008: The triggered ability goes on the stack on top of the Demigod of Revenge spell. By the time the Demigod of Revenge spell resolves, all the Demigods that were in your graveyard will be on the battlefield already.
- 5/1/2008: If Demigod of Revenge is countered *before* its triggered ability resolves, the ability will still resolve. In fact, it will return that Demigod of Revenge from your graveyard to the battlefield, as well as any others.

Planeswalker - Ajani 3/, 2RW (4)
+1: Target permanent doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.
-2: Ajani Vengeant deals 3 damage to target creature or player and you gain 3 life.
-7: Destroy all lands target player controls.
Illus. Jason Chan
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/1/2008: You may target any permanent with Ajani Vengeant's first ability. It doesn't have to be tapped.
- 10/1/2008: The first ability tracks the permanent, but not its controller. If the permanent changes controllers before its first controller's next untap step has come around, then it won't untap during its new controller's next untap step.
- 10/1/2008: If two or more planeswalkers on the battlefield share a planeswalker subtype, all are put into their owners' graveyards. This means that if both Ajani Vengeant and the _Lorwyn_ card Ajani Goldmane are on the battlefield, both are put into their owners' graveyards.

Legendary Creature - Demon Dragon 6/6, 2BBRR (6)
Flying
When Malfegor enters the battlefield, discard your hand. Each opponent sacrifices a creature for each card discarded this way.1
Illus. Karl Kopinski
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 2/1/2009: This ability is not optional. You must discard your entire hand no matter how many creatures your opponents control.
- 2/1/2009: After you discard your hand and the number of creatures each opponent must sacrifice has been determined, each opponent in turn order, starting with the player whose turn it is if that player is your opponent, chooses which creatures he or she will sacrifice, then all the chosen creatures are all sacrificed at the same time.

Creature - Dragon 4/4, 2RRRG (6)
Flying
At the beginning of each upkeep, put a 1/1 red and green Dragon creature token with flying and devour 2 onto the battlefield. (As the token enters the battlefield, you may sacrifice any number of creatures. It enters the battlefield with twice that many +1/+1 counters on it.)1
Illus. Jean-Sébastien Rossbach
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 5/1/2009: Putting a token creature with devour onto the battlefield works the same as putting any other creature with devour onto the battlefield. The token may devour Dragon Broodmother itself!
- 5/1/2009: In a Two-Headed Giant game, Dragon Broodmother's second ability triggers only once at the beginning of each team's upkeep, not once for each player. You'll get one Dragon token at the beginning of your team's upkeep and one Dragon token at the beginning of the opposing team's upkeep.

Each Wolf you control has deathtouch. (Creatures dealt damage by those creatures are destroyed. You can divide their combat damage among any of the creatures blocking or blocked by it.)1
Illus. Steve Prescott
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/1/2007: Wren's Run Packmaster gives deathtouch to all Wolf permanents you control, not just the tokens it creates.
- 10/1/2009: A Wolf's deathtouch ability will apply if both Wren's Run Packmaster and that Wolf are on the battlefield at the time the Wolf deals damage. The creature dealt damage by the Wolf will be destroyed the next time state-based actions are checked, even if the Wolf or Wren's Run Packmaster leaves the battlefield.

Each instant and sorcery spell you cast has replicate. The replicate cost is equal to its mana cost. (When you cast it, copy it for each time you paid its replicate cost. You may choose new targets for the copies.)1
Illus. Michael Sutfin
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 2/1/2006: If you cast a spell that already has replicate while you have this creature on the battlefield, the spell will have two replicate abilities: one with a replicate cost as printed on it, and one with a replicate cost equal to its mana cost. (In this set, both costs are always the same.) You may use either ability, or both abilities, to replicate the spell.
- 2/1/2006: If you cast an instant or sorcery spell that has {X} in its mana cost, the value of X in the spell's replicate cost will be the same as the value of X you chose for its mana cost.

Creature - Elf Warrior 1+X/1+X, 5GG (7)
You may exile two green cards from your hand rather than pay Allosaurus Rider's mana cost.
Allosaurus Rider's power and toughness are each equal to 1 plus the number of lands you control.1
Illus. Daren Bader
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 7/15/2006: Paying the alternative cost doesn't change when you can cast the spell. A creature spell you cast this way, for example, can still only be cast during your main phase while the stack is empty.
- 7/15/2006: You may pay the alternative cost rather than the card's mana cost. Any additional costs are paid as normal.
- 7/15/2006: If you don't have two cards of the right color in your hand, you can't choose to cast the spell using the alternative cost.
- 7/15/2006: You can't exile a card from your hand to pay for itself. At the time you would pay costs, that card is on the stack, not in your hand.

Artifact
Suspend 3-{0} (Rather than cast this card from your hand, pay {0} and exile it with three time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter. When the last is removed, cast it without paying its mana cost.)
{T}, Sacrifice Lotus Bloom: Add three mana of any one color to your mana pool.1
Illus. Christopher Rush
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 10/15/2006: This has no mana cost, which means it can't normally be cast as a spell. You could, however, cast it via some alternate means, like with Fist of Suns or Mind’s Desire.
- 10/15/2006: This has no mana cost, which means it can't be cast with the Replicate ability of Djinn Illuminatus or by somehow giving it Flashback.

Legendary Creature - Rat Ninja 5/4, 4BB (6)
Ninjutsu {3}{B}{B} ({3}{B}{B}, Return an unblocked attacker you control to hand: Put this card onto the battlefield from your hand tapped and attacking.)
Whenever Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni deals combat damage to a player, you may put target creature card from that player's graveyard onto the battlefield under your control.

Illus. Wayne Reynolds
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

Legendary Creature - Spirit X/X, 3WW (5)
Kiyomaro, First to Stand's power and toughness are each equal to the number of cards in your hand.
As long as you have four or more cards in hand, Kiyomaro has vigilance.
Whenever Kiyomaro deals damage, if you have seven or more cards in hand, you gain 7 life.
Illus. Kev Walker
Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]
- 6/1/2005: Kiyomaro's power and toughness don't affect whether it has vigilance or the life-gain ability.
- 6/1/2005: Losing vigilance after attackers are declared doesn't cause Kiyomaro to tap.
- 6/1/2005: If you have seven or more cards in hand when Kiyomaro's triggered ability goes on the stack but less than seven when the ability resolves, the ability does nothing.
