Best in show is an acorn ability word that debuted in Unfinity.
Description
Whenever another creature becomes the target of a spell or ability you control, you may copy that spell or ability. If you do, the copy targets this creature.
The mechanic is seen on the card Blue Ribbon, indicating the creature is the "best in show", and all effects on other creatures now affect the "best in show" too.
Rulings
- If you control more than one creature with best in show, one of them becoming a target of a spell or ability you control (or a creature you control without best in show becoming such a target) will start a chain reaction that will allow infinite copies of the spell to be created.[1]
- Copying the spell or ability is optional, so the player may stop the award ceremony at their discretion.
