Magnet counters are a type of counter introduced in Tempest. They give an effect to creatures that force them to attack or block when others with the counter do so.
Description[ | ]
Magnet counters first appeared on Magnetic Web in Tempest. It had an activated ability to place Magnet counters on creatures. Whenever a creature with a Magnet counter on it attacks, all other creatures with them on it are forced to attack as well. Similarly, whenever a creature with a Magnet counter on it blocks another creature, all other creatures with them are forced to block as well. These effects represent a magnetic pull between the creatures with the counters.
Trivia[ | ]
- In Magic Online, the counter is colored orange as its considered a negative effect and shares its icon with Mine, Mining, Ore, Pressure, Silver, Storage, Trap, and Winch counters.[1]
