Support is a keyword action introduced in Oath of the Gatewatch that boosts your (or your teammates') creatures with +1/+1 counters.[2] It was also used in Battlebond.[3][4]

Description

"Support N" means "Put a +1/+1 counter on each of up to N target creatures." You may choose fewer targets at will.

If a creature (or any other permanent) has an ability that supports, the ability can't target the creature / permanent itself.

You cannot put the +1/+1 counters on one creature. If it is support 3, you have to put a +1/+1 counter on one creature, then another one, then another. It has to be different creatures for each +1/+1 counter

Rules

Template:Keyword CR

Rulings

  • You can’t put more than one +1/+1 counter on any one target using the support action.
  • Support can target a creature you don’t control.
  • If a spell with support has other abilities that target creatures, those abilities and the support ability can target the same creature.

Examples

Example 1

Shoulder to Shoulder {2}{W}
