Arcbound Worker is in play. Yamabushi's Storm is played. YS's
replacement ability seems to cause Arcbound Worker's "put into a graveyard"
triggered ability's condition not to be met (so AW's counters cannot be put
onto
anything). Right?
Some confusion arises because YS uses the word "is" in its replacement
ability rather than "would be" as we are accustomed to. It is almost as if
YS is telling us to wait until the AW is put into the graveyard, then to go
back in time, and remove it from the game instead.
In CoK, why could Wizards not stick to the tried and true templates?!?!
(searching Oracle text seems to indicate that "would be" is for replacement,
and "is" is for triggered.)
Have the templates themselves changed, or are they just not sticking to the
established templates? And why?
(Anyone who wants to discuss YS as a replacement for Pyroclasm can post on
..strategy... but I doubt anyone will. Pyromaniacs! ATM, I'm considering it
because of Pyroclasm's antisynergy with Furnace Whelp.)
Arcbound Worker
Modular 1 (This comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it's put
into a graveyard, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact
creature.) 1/1.)
Yamabushi's Storm
Yamabushi's Storm deals 1 damage to each creature. If a creature dealt
damage this way is put into a graveyard this turn, remove it from the game
instead.
