Mind Control and Upkeep
« on: March 06, 2013, 01:57:09 PM »
If you use Mind Control to take control of a creature that has Upkeep, I imagine the caster of Mind Control will have to pay that Upkeep correct?  And if they choose not to pay the Upkeep the creature would be discarded as per normal I assume?

Yes, that is correct. And yes, it is a great way to get rid of something like Whirling Spirit!  Watch out for a 2 mana Mind Shield though!

I was thinking more along the lines of Mordok's Obelisk + Mind Control = removal of any creature in the game ;)
