Title: Force Wave into Hellfire/Teleport Trap
Post by: Dumbfire on March 28, 2013, 12:21:34 AM
What should happen if 2 or more creatures are force waved into a Hellfire or Teleport trap?  Do all creatures get affected?  Does only one creature get affected? If so, who chooses which one?

:ohmy:  Oh my. Force wave does say, push all creatures in target zone, one zone, correct?

I would guess all of them until somebody corrects me.

I think it would fall into the simultaneous effect thing.. creatures are all moved together, so they all trigger the trap at the same time creating a simultaneous effect.  So youd choose which one it effects?  Im just kinda guessing.

I was of the impression that even though it happens at once, you do once at a time for mechanical reasons...
Guess we need an official word.

Well hellfire trap is specifically worded for one creature...While force wave says "All creatures" I would rule you move creatures one at a time for this type of situation, but force wave makes it seem as if all creatures would be have to be moved all at once. (I do have a problem where I take text and rules to the literal extreme, even if it makes less sense, I dont know if anyone outside of MtG will understand my pain.)

I would say the best solution would be to treat it like a zone attack were you do it one at a time like how sausageman suggested.

All things move at same time the owner of the trap chooses what creature was the one that set it off.
