Does inkshield create the Inkling tokens as one event or many? The wording is “For each 1 damage prevented this way” which makes me think it would be multiple token creation events, each creating 1 inkling, and thus with an effect such as Took out, would also create that number of food. Since each single creation can be replaced with inkling+food.
The alternative wording would be something like “Whenever damage is prevented this way, create that many” which would make it one creation event in my mind, but I want to see if anyone else has input or thoughts.
@TehPers @Evu MTGA is pretty bad as a rules reference. That “create” is there once is the important thing.
I’m not suggesting that MTGA should be a rules reference, just that it agrees with the commenter.
I haven’t found anywhere in the CR that really mentions this interaction. The closest I found was 608.2f which doesn’t really apply here since it’s not an action being taken on multiple players/objects, but that rule says to create the tokens simultaneously if possible (and I would think it’s possible to create multiple tokens simultaneously since order here doesn’t matter).
Edit: …per prevention event, if that wasn’t clear. So each time damage is prevented.
