About Halfdane

Halfdane, Legendary creature — shapeshifter, designed by Melissa A. Benson first released in Jun, 1994 in the set Legends and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 40.53.

Halfdane would be a valuable addition to a deck focused on adapting to different board states and leveraging the abilities of opponent's creatures. This card could be particularly effective in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's strategy by utilizing their own creatures against them. While Halfdane offers a unique and versatile ability, more competitive options like Clever Impersonator or Sakashima the Impostor may provide better value and consistency in certain strategies, making them potentially more desirable choices for competitive play.

Rules

10/01/09

Note that the duration of Halfdane’s ability is until the end of your next upkeep. If Halfdane’s ability doesn’t get a chance to resolve (because there are no legal targets when it triggers, or because it’s countered), then the effect from the previous turn’s ability will continue to work through the rest of that upkeep step. Then that effect will wear off, and Halfdane will revert to being 3/3, its printed power and toughness (unless some other effect is modifying what its power and toughness is).

10/01/09

You apply power/toughness changing effects in a series of sublayers in the following order: (a) effects from characteristic-defining abilities; (b) effects that set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value; (c) effects that modify power and/or toughness but don’t set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value; (d) changes from counters; (e) effects that switch a creature’s power and toughness. This card’s effect is always applied in (b), which means that effects applied in sublayer (c), (d), or (e) will not be overwritten; they will be applied to the new value.
