Dwarven Forge-Chanter

{1}{R} · Creature — Dwarf Wizard

Ward—Pay 2 life. (Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays 2 life.) Prowess (Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.)

Rulings (3)

Oct 14, 2022 · Prowess goes on the stack on top of the spell that caused it to trigger. It will resolve before that spell.

Oct 14, 2022 · Any spell you cast that doesn't have the type creature will cause prowess to trigger. If a spell has multiple types, and one of those types is creature (such as an artifact creature), casting it won't cause prowess to trigger. Playing a land also won't cause prowess to trigger.

Oct 14, 2022 · Once it triggers, prowess isn't connected to the spell that caused it to trigger. If that spell is countered, prowess will still resolve.
