- Will not generally kill zero cost creatures because the age counters go on before the ability triggers. If would be possible if something like Power Conduit were removing counters. (2005-06-01)
- If you don't pay the cumulative upkeep, you'll sacrifice Wave of Terror before your draw step begins. It won't destroy any creatures that turn. (2008-04-01)
- This destroys creatures with mana value exactly equal to the appropriate number, not equal to or less than that number. (2008-04-01)
