    Arc-Slogger

    Is it possible to use Arc-Slogger's ability if there are less than ten cards in your library?

    A little more info than one word please, Nihil :)

    You have to be able to remove 10 cards to use Arc Slogger's ability because it's a cost, not part of the effect.

    Asking whether you can remove less than 10 cards is like asking if you can just not pay the R, see?

But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.

    I know that it's part of the cost. My real question comes in the wording. It says to remove the top ten cards. I thought that since it's a relative term, it would be ok. Kind of like if something said "Remove all the cards in your library from the game." However, I agree with you now after having though about it.

    Re: Arc-Slogger

    I get your train of thought. The clue however, isn't in the 'top' but in the 'ten', but obviously you figured that one out by now :)
