Battalion
- For the Morningtide theme deck, see Battalion (preconstructed theme deck).
Battalion is an ability word introduced in Gatecrash, wherein it is the Boros Legion guild mechanic. The mechanic was designed or inspired by Shawn Main, who, for the Great Designer Search 2, submitted "Assault".[1][2]
Rulings
- The three attacking creatures don't have to be attacking the same player or planeswalker.
- Once a battalion ability has triggered, it doesn't matter how many creatures are still attacking when that ability resolves.
- The effects of battalion abilities vary from card to card. Read each card carefully.
