| Exalted is a little tricky when playing two-headed giant. - Quote :
- 702.80. Exalted
702.80a Exalted is a triggered ability. “Exalted” means “Whenever a creature you control attacks alone, that creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.”
702.80b A creature “attacks alone” if it’s the only creature declared as an attacker in a given combat phase. See rule 506.5.
506.5. A creature attacks alone if it’s the only creature declared as an attacker during the declare attackers step. A creature is attacking alone if it’s attacking but no other creatures are. A creature blocks alone if it’s the only creature declared as a blocker during the declare blockers step. A creature is blocking alone if it’s blocking but no other creatures are. Since the entire team shares every phase, including the "declare attackers" phase, there must be only one creature declared as an attacker by the entire team for exalted to trigger. - Quote :
- 806. Two-Headed Giant Variant
806.7c As the declare attackers step begins, the active team declares attackers. If an effect of an object controlled by a defending player prohibits a creature from attacking him or her, that creature can’t attack the defending team. The active team has one combined attack, and that set of attacking creatures must be legal as a whole. See rule 508.1. Also note that exalted only works on creatures you control, not on creatures your teammates control. | |
