Temper of Stronghold

Prevent the next X damage that would be dealt to target creature this turn. For each 1 damage prevented this way, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.

"I don't need a plan, just a goal. The rest will follow on its own." —Gerrard

04-10-2004 wotc You can make X be larger than the amount of damage, but you only get one counter for each actual point of damage prevented.
04-10-2004 wotc The +1/+1 counters do show up at the same time as any unprevented damage, which means they are there before you check for lethal damage.
