Animal Sanctuary

{T}: Add {C}.
{2}, {T}: Put a +1/+1 counter on target Bird, Cat, Dog, Goat, Ox, or Snake.

"I do not miss Jukai Forest. It is not my home. My home is Kamigawa, its people my family. Wherever I set my pack and rest my head, I am home."

Azusa, Lost but Seeking

Azusa's ability is cumulative with other effects that allow you to play additional lands, such as that of Song of Creation (from the Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths set).

You may play two additional lands on each of your turns.

Some angels protect the meek and innocent. Others seek out and smite evil wherever it lurks.

Baneslayer Angel

“Protection from Demons and from Dragons” means the following: -- Baneslayer Angel can't be blocked by creatures with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon. -- Baneslayer Angel can't be targeted abilities from sources with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon, or by spells with either of those types. -- All damage that would be dealt to Baneslayer Angel by sources with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon is prevented. -- Baneslayer Angel can't be enchanted by Auras or equipped by artifacts that have somehow gotten the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon.

Flying, first strike, lifelink, protection from Demons and from Dragons

"There is no age at which you stop learning."

Barrin, Tolarian Archmage

Barrin's last ability checks the entire turn, even before Barrin was on the battlefield.

If a permanent wasn't put into your hand from the battlefield before your end step begins, Barrin's ability doesn't trigger at all.

If a token is returned to your hand, it's put there before it ceases to exist.

The permanent that was returned to your hand doesn't have to still be there.

You draw only one card, no matter how many permanents were put into your hand from the battlefield during that turn.

When Barrin, Tolarian Archmage enters, return up to one other target creature or planeswalker to its owner's hand.
At the beginning of your end step, if a permanent was put into your hand from the battlefield this turn, draw a card.

Basri Ket

Although the Soldiers are attacking creatures, they were never declared as attacking creatures. This means that abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger when the Soldiers enter the battlefield attacking.

Any effects that say that the Soldiers can't attack (such as that of Propaganda) affect only the declaration of attackers. They won't stop the Soldier tokens from entering the battlefield attacking.

The Soldier token created by Basri's last ability can't attack during the turn you create it unless it gains haste somehow.

The delayed triggered ability of Basri's second ability triggers if any nontoken creatures attack, and it counts how many nontoken creatures attacked. Attacking nontoken creatures that leave combat before the triggered ability resolves are counted. Token creatures that are attacking don't stop the ability from triggering and aren't counted.

You choose which player or planeswalker each Soldier token is attacking. They don't have to be attacking the same players or planeswalkers that the nontoken creatures are attacking, and they don't have to be attacking the same player or planeswalker as each other.

[+1]: Put a +1/+1 counter on up to one target creature. It gains indestructible until end of turn.
[−2]: Whenever one or more nontoken creatures attack this turn, create that many 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens that are tapped and attacking.
[−6]: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a 1/1 white Soldier creature token, then put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control."

Basri's Lieutenant

Basri's Lieutenant can be the target of its own enters-the-battlefield triggered ability.

If Basri's Lieutenant dies at the same time as other creatures, its last ability will trigger for any of the creatures that had a +1/+1 counter on it, including itself.

If a creature with +1/+1 counters on it receives a greater or equal number of -1/-1 counters and this causes it to be destroyed by lethal damage or put into its owner's graveyard for having 0 or less toughness, the last ability triggers. This is because the ability checks the creature as it last existed on the battlefield, and it still had those counters on it at that point.

The second triggered ability of Basri's Lieutenant triggers just once if the dying creature has +1/+1 counters on it, no matter how many of those counters it has.

Vigilance, protection from multicolored
When Basri's Lieutenant enters, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control.
Whenever Basri's Lieutenant or another creature you control dies, if it had a +1/+1 counter on it, create a 2/2 white Knight creature token with vigilance.

Brash Taunter

A creature can be dealt an amount of damage greater than its toughness. For example, if Brash Taunter is dealt 3 damage, its middle ability deals 3 damage, not 1, to the target opponent.

If the target creature is an illegal target when Brash Taunter's last ability tries to resolve, the ability doesn't resolve. If Brash Taunter is no longer on the battlefield, the target creature won't deal or be dealt damage.

If your life total is brought to 0 or less at the same time that Brash Taunter is dealt damage, you lose the game before its middle ability goes on the stack.

Indestructible
Whenever Brash Taunter is dealt damage, it deals that much damage to target opponent.
{2}{R}, {T}: Brash Taunter fights another target creature.

Chandra's Incinerator

Chandra's Incinerator counts all noncombat damage dealt to your opponents, not the difference in their life totals since the turn began. For example, if an opponent was dealt 5 noncombat damage but gained 3 life, Chandra's Incinerator still costs just {R}.

Combat damage is the damage that's dealt automatically by attacking and blocking creatures. Any other damage is noncombat damage, even if it's dealt during a combat phase by an attacking or blocking creature.

In a multiplayer game, Chandra's Incinerator counts damage dealt to opponents who have lost the game.

The cost reduction applies only to generic mana in the cost of Chandra's Incinerator. It can't reduce the {R} requirement.

This spell costs {X} less to cast, where X is the total amount of noncombat damage dealt to your opponents this turn.
Trample
Whenever a source you control deals noncombat damage to an opponent, Chandra's Incinerator deals that much damage to target creature or planeswalker that player controls.

Chandra, Heart of Fire

Because it's a loyalty ability, Chandra's last ability isn't a mana ability. It can be activated only any time you could cast a sorcery. It uses the stack and can be responded to.

If you don't play the exiled cards, they remain exiled.

If you have no cards in hand, you still exile three cards while resolving Chandra's first ability and you may play them this turn.

You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions for the exiled cards for Chandra's first and last abilities. If one is a land, you can't play it unless you have land plays available.

You'll still pay all costs for a spell cast this way, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs if any are available.

[+1]: Discard your hand, then exile the top three cards of your library. Until end of turn, you may play cards exiled this way.
[+1]: Chandra, Heart of Fire deals 2 damage to any target.
[−9]: Search your graveyard and library for any number of red instant and/or sorcery cards, exile them, then shuffle. You may cast them this turn. Add six {R}.

Visitors marvel at its design, unaware of the other world that inspired it.

Chromatic Orrery

Chromatic Orrery's last ability can have you draw at most five cards. "Colorless," "artifact," and "gold" are not colors.

You may spend mana as though it were mana of any color.
{T}: Add {C}{C}{C}{C}{C}.
{5}, {T}: Draw a card for each color among permanents you control.

Conspicuous Snoop

Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written “[Cost]: [Effect].” Some keyword abilities are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text.

If Conspicuous Snoop gains a set of linked activated abilities (for example, one ability that exiles a card and another that refers to the card “exiled with” the object), that link only lasts as long as Conspicuous Snoop has those abilities. If it loses the abilities and then regains them, the link is lost.

If an activated ability of Goblin card on top of your library references the card it's printed on by name, treat Conspicuous Snoop's instance of that ability as though it referenced Conspicuous Snoop by name instead. For instance, if Conspicuous Snoop has Brash Taunter's ability, Conspicuous Snoop fights, not Brash Taunter.

If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you don't reveal the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell. While the top card isn't revealed, Conspicuous Snoop doesn't have any abilities of that card.

You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the Goblin spells you cast from your library.

You still pay all costs for a Goblin spell you cast from your library, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs.

Play with the top card of your library revealed.
You may cast Goblin spells from the top of your library.
As long as the top card of your library is a Goblin card, Conspicuous Snoop has all activated abilities of that card.

Some protection requires a bit of finesse.

Containment Priest

Containment Priest's last ability won't affect any creatures that were cast, including ones cast from unusual zones such as your graveyard.

If Containment Priest enters the battlefield at the same time as other creatures, its ability won't affect those creatures.

If Containment Priest enters the battlefield without being cast, its ability won't exile itself.

If a noncreature card wasn't cast and is entering the battlefield as a creature (due to an effect such as that of March of the Machines), it will be exiled. Conversely, if a creature card wasn't cast and is entering the battlefield as a noncreature permanent (for example, Heliod, Sun-Crowned with insufficient devotion), it won't be exiled.

Flash
If a nontoken creature would enter and it wasn't cast, exile it instead.

Demonic Embrace

Casting Demonic Embrace with the permission granted by its last ability doesn't change when you can cast it.

If another effect gives you permission to cast Demonic Embrace from your graveyard, you don't pay the additional cost imposed by its last ability if you use that permission.

If the enchanted creature dies during your turn, you receive priority before any other player does. If you're allowed to cast Demonic Embrace at that time, you may do so before any player can attempt to remove it from your graveyard.

Enchant creature
Enchanted creature gets +3/+1, has flying, and is a Demon in addition to its other types.
You may cast Demonic Embrace from your graveyard by paying 3 life and discarding a card in addition to paying its other costs.

Discontinuity

Any “at the beginning of the next end step” triggered abilities won't get the chance to trigger that turn because the end step is skipped. Those abilities will trigger at the beginning of the end step of the next turn.

Ending the turn this way means the following things happen in order: 1) All spells and abilities on the stack are exiled. This includes spells and abilities that can't be countered. 2) If there are any attacking and blocking creatures, they're removed from combat. 3) State-based actions are checked. No player gets priority, and no triggered abilities are put onto the stack. 4) The current phase and/or step ends. The game skips straight to the cleanup step. 5) The cleanup step happens in its entirety.

If any triggered abilities do trigger during this process, they're put onto the stack during the cleanup step. If this happens, players will have a chance to cast spells and activate abilities, then there will be another cleanup step before the turn is over.

Though other spells and abilities that are exiled won't get a chance to resolve, they don't count as being countered.

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Discontinuity). The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

During your turn, this spell costs {2}{U}{U} less to cast.
End the turn. (Exile all spells and abilities from the stack, including this card. The player whose turn it is discards down to their maximum hand size. Damage wears off, and "this turn" and "until end of turn" effects end.)

"Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. I am."

Double Vision

A copy is created even if the spell that caused Double Vision's ability to trigger has been countered by the time that ability resolves. The copy resolves before the original spell.

Double Vision's ability will copy any instant or sorcery spell, not just one with targets.

If the spell that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast, the copy has the same value of X.

If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says “Choose one —” or the like), the copy will have the same mode or modes. You can't choose different ones.

If you cast an instant or sorcery spell before Double Vision enters the battlefield during the same turn, its ability can't trigger that turn.

The copy that Double Vision's ability creates is created on the stack, so it's not “cast.” Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won't trigger.

The copy will have the same targets as the spell it's copying unless you choose new ones. You may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. The new targets must be legal.

You can't choose to pay any additional costs for the copy. However, effects based on any additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy too.

Whenever you cast your first instant or sorcery spell each turn, copy that spell. You may choose new targets for the copy.

Elder Gargaroth

If you create a Beast token, that token can't attack or block during the same combat, even if it gains haste.

Players can cast spells after Elder Gargaroth's triggered ability has resolved but before blockers are declared (if it's attacking) or before combat damage is dealt (if it's blocking).

Vigilance, reach, trample
Whenever Elder Gargaroth attacks or blocks, choose one —
• Create a 3/3 green Beast creature token.
• You gain 3 life.
• Draw a card.

From here, the path to anywhere may be found.

Fabled Passage

If you control four or more lands, the basic land doesn’t enter untapped; it enters tapped and then you untap it.

The land that you put onto the battlefield will be counted when determining whether you control four or more lands, but Fabled Passage will not.

{T}, Sacrifice Fabled Passage: Search your library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle. Then if you control four or more lands, untap that land.

Feline Sovereign

Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to a Cat you control may become lethal if Feline Sovereign leaves the battlefield during that turn.

Other Cats you control get +1/+1 and have protection from Dogs.
Whenever one or more Cats you control deal combat damage to a player, destroy up to one target artifact or enchantment that player controls.

"One day the mountain's fire will rise up to burn away our chains and end this age of oppression."
—*The Molten Prophecy*

Fiery Emancipation

If a creature with trample you control would deal combat damage to a blocking creature while you control Fiery Emancipation, you must assign its unmodified damage. For example, a 3/3 creature with trample blocked by a 2/2 creature can have 2 damage assigned to the blocking creature and 1 damage assigned to the defending player. It will then deal 6 damage to the blocking creature and 3 damage to the defending player.

If an effect asks you to divide damage among targets, you must divide the unmodified damage before tripling it.

If multiple replacement or prevention effects try to modify damage that would be dealt to a player or permanent, the player or the controller of the permanent chooses the order in which they apply.

If a source you control would deal damage to a permanent or player, it deals triple that damage to that permanent or player instead.

Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge

Gadrak's last ability counts creatures that died during the entire turn, even ones that died before Gadrak entered the battlefield.

Once Gadrak has attacked, it will remain an attacking creature even if you no longer control four or more artifacts.

Flying
Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge can't attack unless you control four or more artifacts.
At the beginning of your end step, create a Treasure token for each nontoken creature that died this turn. (It's an artifact with "{T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color.")

Garruk's Harbinger

Hexproof from black means that Garruk's Harbinger can't be the target of black spells your opponents control or abilities your opponents control of black sources.

If Garruk's Harbinger deals damage to a planeswalker greater than their loyalty or to a player greater than their life total, you look at a number of cards equal to that full amount of damage dealt, not just that loyalty or life total.

Hexproof from black
Whenever Garruk's Harbinger deals combat damage to a player or planeswalker, look at that many cards from the top of your library. You may reveal a creature card or Garruk planeswalker card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

Garruk, Unleashed

Garruk's second ability gives him only one loyalty counter, no matter how many opponents control how many more creatures than you do.

If Garruk has only two loyalty counters, activating his second loyalty ability results in him dying before it resolves. He won't be there to get a loyalty counter.

If the creature you put onto the battlefield with Garruk's emblem's ability during your end step has an ability that triggers at the beginning of your end step, it won't trigger during that end step.

[+1]: Up to one target creature gets +3/+3 and gains trample until end of turn.
[−2]: Create a 3/3 green Beast creature token. Then if an opponent controls more creatures than you, put a loyalty counter on Garruk, Unleashed.
[−7]: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of your end step, you may search your library for a creature card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle."

Ghostly Pilferer

An ability that triggers when a player casts a spell resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

Ghostly Pilferer's first ability triggers during your untap step, but it's put onto the stack at the same time as abilities that trigger at the beginning of your upkeep step. Even though the ability triggered first, you may order it before or after other abilities you control that are put onto the stack at this time.

Once Ghostly Pilferer has been blocked, activating its last ability doesn't cause it to become unblocked.

Players can cast spells and activate abilities after the second triggered ability resolves but before the spell that caused it to trigger does.

While resolving Ghostly Pilferer's first ability, you can't pay more than {2} to draw more than one card.

Whenever Ghostly Pilferer becomes untapped, you may pay {2}. If you do, draw a card.
Whenever an opponent casts a spell from anywhere other than their hand, draw a card.
Discard a card: Ghostly Pilferer can't be blocked this turn.

The songs of angels are perceived not as words in the ears but as stirrings in the soul.

Glorious Anthem

As blood touched the empty page, it formed words that seared themselves into the wizard's mind.

Grim Tutor

You don't reveal the card you search for.

Search your library for a card, put that card into your hand, then shuffle. You lose 3 life.

"Wherever the strong would harm the weak, I will be there."
—Ajani Goldmane

Heroic Intervention

A planeswalker with indestructible still loses loyalty counters as it's dealt damage and will still be put into its owner's graveyard if its loyalty reaches 0.

The set of permanents affected by Heroic Intervention is determined as the spell resolves. Permanents you begin to control later in the turn won't gain hexproof and indestructible.

A battle with indestructible still loses defense counters as it's dealt damage. If it's a Siege, it will still be exiled when the last defense counter is removed from it, and its controller may still cast it transformed without paying its mana cost.

Permanents you control gain hexproof and indestructible until end of turn.

Hooded Blightfang

Hooded Blightfang's triggered abilities trigger when it attacks and when it deals damage to a planeswalker, as long as it still has deathtouch.

In a Two-Headed Giant game, Hooded Blightfang's middle ability causes the opposing team to lose 2 life and you to gain 1 life.

Deathtouch
Whenever a creature you control with deathtouch attacks, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.
Whenever a creature you control with deathtouch deals damage to a planeswalker, destroy that planeswalker.

Idol of Endurance

If a card in a player's graveyard has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

If you cast a spell with Idol of Endurance's last ability, it becomes a new object. If it returns to exile, it's no longer exiled with Idol of Endurance, and won't be returned to your graveyard once Idol of Endurance leaves the battlefield.

If you cast a spell “without paying its mana cost,” you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.

The exiled cards return to your graveyard immediately after Idol of Endurance leaves the battlefield. Any cards that had left exile before then (most likely because they were cast with Idol of Endurance's second ability) remain in their current zone.

The last ability of Idol of Endurance doesn't change when you may cast those creature spells. Normally this means during your main phase while the stack is empty, but you can cast a creature spell with flash at other times.

When Idol of Endurance enters, exile all creature cards with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard until Idol of Endurance leaves the battlefield.
{1}{W}, {T}: Until end of turn, you may cast a creature spell from among cards exiled with Idol of Endurance without paying its mana cost.

"Humans bring nothing but suffering and deceit. They are not welcome in my forest."

Jolrael, Mwonvuli Recluse

Effects that modify an affected creature's power and/or toughness without setting them to specific values will apply no matter when those effects began. The same is true for counters that change the creature's power and/or toughness.

Jolrael's last ability overwrites all previous effects that set the affected creatures' power and/or toughness to specific values. If other effects that set these characteristics to specific values start to apply after Jolrael's ability resolves, they will overwrite that part of the effect.

The triggered ability can trigger only once each turn. It doesn't matter if Jolrael was on the battlefield when the first card was drawn: if it's not on the battlefield when the second card is drawn, the ability can't trigger at all that turn.

The value of X is determined only as Jolrael's last ability resolves. Once that happens, the value of X won't change later in the turn even if the number of cards in your hand changes.

Whenever you draw your second card each turn, create a 2/2 green Cat creature token.
{4}{G}{G}: Until end of turn, creatures you control have base power and toughness X/X, where X is the number of cards in your hand.

"Defy me and I will burn the flesh from your bones. Betray me and I will steal the breath from your lungs."

Kaervek, the Spiteful

Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to creatures may become lethal if Kaervek enters the battlefield during that turn.

If you control more than one Kaervek, each will give each other creature -1/-1. If these effects cause a creature's toughness to become less than or equal to 0 or the amount of damage marked on it, those creatures die at the same time that the “legend rule” remove your excess Kaerveks.

The purple banner of the House of Vess is a symbol of death wherever it's flown.

Liliana's Standard Bearer

The value of X is determined only as the triggered ability resolves. If Liliana's Standard Bearer dies while that ability's on the stack, it will count itself.

Flash
When Liliana's Standard Bearer enters, draw X cards, where X is the number of creatures that died under your control this turn.

Liliana, Waker of the Dead

A player who has a card in hand can't choose to lose 3 life instead of discarding a card.

As Liliana's first ability resolves, first the player whose turn it is chooses a card in hand without revealing it, then each other player in turn order does the same. Then all the chosen cards are discarded at the same time. Finally, each opponent who couldn't discard a card loses 3 life.

Creatures put onto the battlefield with Liliana's emblem gain haste indefinitely.

If you have no cards in hand, you just don't discard anything. You don't lose 3 life. Other players still discard if able.

In a multiplayer game, if a player leaves the game, all cards that player owns leave as well. If you leave the game, any permanents you control from Liliana's emblem are exiled.

The value of X is determined only as Liliana's second ability resolves. Once that happens, the value of X won't change later in the turn even if the number of cards in your graveyard changes.

[+1]: Each player discards a card. Each opponent who can't loses 3 life.
[−3]: Target creature gets -X/-X until end of turn, where X is the number of cards in your graveyard.
[−7]: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of combat on your turn, put target creature card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. It gains haste."

Mangara, the Diplomat

If some of the attacking creatures leave the battlefield while Mangara's triggered ability is on the stack, use the player or planeswalker they were attacking before they left to determine whether you draw a card. On the other hand, if they're removed from combat without leaving the battlefield, use their current information to determine that they're not attacking you or a planeswalker you control anymore.

If your opponent attacks you with one creature and your planeswalker with another, you draw a card.

Players can cast spells and activate abilities after the triggered ability resolves but before the spell that caused it to trigger does.

You draw just one card, no matter how many creatures are attacking you and your planeswalkers beyond the second.

Lifelink
Whenever an opponent attacks with creatures, if two or more of those creatures are attacking you and/or planeswalkers you control, draw a card.
Whenever an opponent casts their second spell each turn, draw a card.

Massacre Wurm

If a creature an opponent controls dies at the same time as Massacre Wurm, Massacre Wurm's last ability triggers for that creature.

If your life total is brought to 0 or less at the same time that a creature an opponent controls is dealt lethal damage, you lose the game before Massacre Wurm's last ability goes on the stack.

Massacre Wurm's first ability affects only creatures your opponents control at the time it resolves. Creatures they begin to control later in the turn won't get -2/-2.

Massacre Wurm's triggered ability triggers if a creature an opponent controls dies for any reason, including from its first ability reducing its toughness to 0, as long as Massacre Wurm remains on the battlefield.

When Massacre Wurm enters, creatures your opponents control get -2/-2 until end of turn.
Whenever a creature an opponent controls dies, that player loses 2 life.

Mazemind Tome

If Mazemind Tome leaves the battlefield while its triggered ability is on the stack, you can't exile it from the zone it's put into.

{T}, Put a page counter on Mazemind Tome: Scry 1.
{2}, {T}, Put a page counter on Mazemind Tome: Draw a card.
When there are four or more page counters on Mazemind Tome, exile it. If you do, you gain 4 life.

Necromentia

Choose a card name other than a basic land card name. Search target opponent's graveyard, hand, and library for any number of cards with that name and exile them. That player shuffles, then creates a 2/2 black Zombie creature token for each card exiled from their hand this way.

Niambi, Esteemed Speaker

If a creature on the battlefield has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Niambi's triggered ability tries to resolve, the ability won't resolve. You won't return the card from the zone it moved to or gain any life.

Flash
When Niambi, Esteemed Speaker enters, you may return another target creature you control to its owner's hand. If you do, you gain life equal to that creature's mana value.
{1}{W}{U}, {T}, Discard a legendary card: Draw two cards.

Nine Lives

If damage that a source would deal to you can't be prevented, you still put an incarnation counter on Nine Lives.

If more than one source deals damage to you at once, prevent the damage from each of them and put that many incarnation counters on Nine Lives, even if this causes more than nine incarnation counters to be on Nine Lives. Leave it to cats to abuse loopholes.

If you counter the first triggered ability or otherwise remove it from the stack, it will just trigger again immediately if Nine Lives still has nine or more incarnation counters on it.

Hexproof
If a source would deal damage to you, prevent that damage and put an incarnation counter on Nine Lives.
When there are nine or more incarnation counters on Nine Lives, exile it.
When Nine Lives leaves the battlefield, you lose the game.
