Nesting Grounds

Legal Counter Movement

New 31 May 2024 Asked by deathworld12 17 Comments

nesting grounds is the tournament legal version of giant fan for anyone asking why isnt giant fan legal in tournamet formats.


Nesting ground just moves counters, which the rules can do. It’s the changing of the counters, and the caring about what counters a card uses that gets us to acorn/silver-border territory.

Understanding Counter Rules

"Black border has to say what the counter becomes. It can’t make it something mentioned on the card like Giant Fan. That’s why it’s Un." I believe the OP was looking for a card like Nesting Grounds--without knowledge of Nesting Grounds.


Nesting Grounds moves a counter. It can’t change what the counter is. That was the issue.
