Triple strike is a static ability featured in Unstable.

Description

Triple strike allows a creature to deal combat damage during both the First strike, the normal Combat Damage Step and the Last strike. The problem with this mechanic is that it is hard to implement in the rules without doing a lot of rework.[1]

History

The idea for triple strike was discussed by R&D prior to its release in Unstable. Mark Rosewater tried to put Triple Strike into Future Sight on a future-shifted card and was stopped by the Magic rules Manager at the time, Mark Gottlieb, due to rule rewriting issues.[2][3]

Despite the concerns with the rules, Mark Rosewater still hoped to be a thing in an Un-set.[4]
