You: 3x 2/2 angel tokens. Opponent: 2x BoP (2/3), 1x Avacyn's Pilgrim (3/3), 1x Elesh (4/7) You cast Thunderous Wrath targeting Elesh. Marking 5 damage on it. You cast Slagstorm dealing 3 damage to all creatures. Each creature has 3 damage marked except Elesh which has 8. SBA's check and see seven lethally damaged creatures and destroys them all. Now if your opponent had a Runeclaw Bear  ... It would have been a 4/4 with 3 damage marked on it and would have survived the first SBA check, but as soon as Elesh leaves the Bear loses the buff and becomes a 2/2 with 3 marked damage and SBA's check again and destroy it. Your Angels would have had to have been 4/4 after applying Elesh's -2/-2 to have survived (ie. 6/6's before it applied)

Once I figure out the rules for it..." Chaikov: "Of course, casual Magic may be played any way your Pokemon group agrees on..." and "It's not logic. It's Magic!" GainsBanding: "I only play online. The Magic Online shuffler is AWESOME!" Ikegami: "one might think [adult cats] would make excellent tokens. The issue, though, is that they are very hard to exile. They return to the battlefield more often than an undying creature." Astarael7: "Does 121.1 imply that players are supposed to wear their poison counters?" Bimmerbot: "If you move the wrong way and [the poison counters] fall, it's a game rule violation" Helluminatus: "Just remember, if it looks like a duck, smells like a duck, and quacks like a duck, but the oracle text says creature - Bunny , then by god, it's a bunny."
