Poison Tolerance is a static keyword ability that was featured on test cards in the Philadelphia 2023 Unknown Event.

Description

A permanent with poison tolerance allows the player to temporarily accumulate more poison counters than the normal 10 that would cause them to lose the game. It is an additive effect with each permanent having the ability on the battlefield to add a varied number of poison tolerance to the player. The effect only remains while the permanents remain on the battlefield so one of them leaving the battlefield could trigger a loss of the game if the tolerance drops below the number of poison counters. It has been featured on artifacts, creatures, and enchantments on Unknown Event test cards.
