Cathedral Acolyte

Cathedral Acolyte

{1}{G}Creature — Human Cleric1/2

Each creature you control with a counter on it has ward {1}. (Whenever it becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays {1}.)

{T}: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature that entered this turn.

Official rulings

  1. The effect of Cathedral Acolyte’s first ability applies to any creature you control with a counter on it, not just ones with +1/+1 counters. (2024-03-08)
  2. Once a creature’s ward ability has triggered, causing that creature to lose ward by removing Cathedral Acolyte won’t affect the ability. The appropriate player will still have to pay {1} or see their spell or ability countered. (2024-03-08)
