Battle cry

Battle cry is a triggered ability first introduced in Mirrodin Besieged and gives a +1/+0 bonus to each other attacking creature, thus being more or less an inversion of Exalted. Battle Cry was featured as rules card 1 of 5 in the Mirrodin Besieged set. It has to date appeared on seven cards, all of which carry the Mirran watermark.

Rulings

• The +1/+0 bonus applies to each other attacking creature, but not to the creature with battle cry itself.
• The +1/+0 bonus remains until the end of the turn, even if the creature with battle cry leaves the battlefield or stops being an attacking creature.
• If a creature with battle cry attacks more than once in a turn (due to an additional combat phase being created), its battle cry ability will trigger each time. The results are cumulative.
• In Two-Headed Giant and other multiplayer variants where players share a turn, attacking creatures controlled by a teammate also receive the +1/+0 bonus.
