Bolster is a keyword action introduced in Fate Reforged where it replaced Outlast from Khans of Tarkir as the mechanic associated with the Abzan Houses.[1][2] Bolster is also featured in Dragons of Tarkir, associated with the Dromoka clan.[3]
Description
When Bolster = N, you choose a creature with the least toughness or tied with the least toughness among creatures you control and put N +1/+1 counters on it.
Rules
Rulings
- Bolster itself doesn't target any creature, though some spells and abilities that bolster may have other effects that target creatures. For example, you could put counters on a creature with protection from white with Abzan Skycaptain's bolster ability.
- You determine which creature to put counters on as the spell or ability that instructs you to bolster resolves.
