  2. Poisonous 1 causes the player to get just one poison counter when a Sliver deals combat damage to them, no matter how much damage that Sliver dealt. (2021-03-19)
  3. A player with ten or more poison counters loses the game as a state-based action, even if no permanents with poisonous are on the battlefield. (2021-03-19)
  4. If a creature has multiple instances of poisonous, each triggers separately. (2021-03-19)
