Just a quick a dirty question: Which one applies first?

Whichever you'd want, I'd bet. Both of them are your effects, and both try to activate at the same time (assuming the fire damage you're dealing is from an ability), so I think it's safe to say that you can place them on a chain in whichever order you want.

You get to choose which ability resolves first.

Ain't that what I said? :P

Yeah, basicially but im here to uh... *ponders* varify your information with another beings opinion? *shrugs*

Fair enough. XD. Confirmation is awesome.

Yeah, thats the word I was looking for, Confrimation... :p

plus he put it more simply

True. True.

But people should understand the whys of game mechanics, it tends to help alleviate any confusion.

which is why we are here in the first place.

Not everyone has several TCGs worth of card knowhow, or have the ability to understand the rulebook from first glance.

I love putting things in simple terms, it's suprising how often people are speaking in rules text and have no idea what they mean.

True that.

Okay. I'll provide technical insight where it's needed (I've done a lot more studying now), and you guys can back me up with simplified answers. That way everyone can benefit. Hooray! :D

...were still talking about this? o_O;;

Umm whoever said you get to choose which ability happens first might be right about the rule but how does choosing which ability goes first apply to an Equipment card(Chromatic Cloak)???

Basically, both these cards have a replacement modifier that increases the amount of damage done if their specified events happen. If both would apply, you decide the order of which they increase the damage packet.

Note that replacement modifiers do not use the chain. They replace the event that would happen with another. To maximize the damage done when you have both in play, you would want to apply CC first, followed by WiF.

love to do that with flamestrike :D
