Tupdog question...

Ok... I get a skill card on Tupdog... I equip him (her, it?!?) with a soul gem... At the end of my minion phase, if another copy of him appears... Would the second copy burn instantly? Or is it the end of my minioin phase has past, and then tupdog is burnt... Or do I order it? I would like to know... If it works the way I think it should, I have an interesting deck design.

As I read it, at the end of the minion phase, you burn him. Your minion phase is past. If another Tupdog comes out because of the Gem, it's fine.

The incoming Tupdog is burned. -- That is my story, be it bitter or be it sweet. Keep a little and let a little come back to me.

The incoming Tupdog is burned. Mind you, there still might be a use to this in an all-Tupdog crypt: Tupdog-A with a skill card and the Soul Gem burns. A new minion (Tupdog-C) is placed into your uncontrolled region per Tupdog-A text. Per Soul Gem text, you also take the top minion off your crypt (look, Tupdog-B - lower capacity!) and put them into play with the Soul Gem. Tupdog-B burns because it's still the end of your minion phase. A new minion (Tupdog-D) is placed into your uncontrolled region per Tupdog-B text. Per Soul Gem text, you also take the top minion off your crypt (look, Tupdog-E - same capacity as B) and put them into your uncontrolled region, burning the Soul Gem per its text. So when your minion phase ended, you had a Tupdog with a skill card and the Soul Gem. When you're done resolving the Soul Gem/Tupdog chain, the Soul Gem and skill card are in your ash heap, as is the Tupdog you started with - and one more Tupdog is in your ash heap, but THREE new minions are in your uncontrolled region. Which might potentially be useful to do sometime. > LSJ (vtesr...@TRAPwhite-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep (remove spam trap to reply) -John Flournoy

Ahhh man... You had to say it... I was thinking about a deck that oust backwards... You have to be able to burn through alot of minions fast to do it... Group 2/3 Crypt is all 1 caps (mostly Tupdog) , alot of presence skill cards, alot of soul gems, Votes (Mark of the Damned, and one of the votes that gives you pool for each minion you have.), some awes, a bunch of bewitching, and for combat staredowns with a few backflips(only to be used on the the none tupdogs)and probably a few pushing the limits for fun. And of course a creepshow(or dreams), just incase. Maybe a Hiedenberg too... It'll the worse 1 trick pony ever!!!!!! =D [ quoted text not captured ]
