Hardened Scales

Giant Fan's Effect

Acorn question: Does a counter that gets moves onto another permanent with Giant Fan move onto the other permanent as the type of counter it is and then change into the second kind of counter, or does it get put onto the second permanent as the new type of counter? It'd matter for things like Hardened Scales.

It goes on the new permanent as the new type of counter.

Combo Design Trivia

Hey, Mark! Wednesday was my birthday, but I’m pretty sure my schedule keeps causing my ask to fall through the cracks. Can I get trivia on Hardened Scales, Arcbound Ravager, or your thoughts on the current state of +1/+1 counter based combos in eternal formats?

I believe the design for Arcbound Ravager cane about because I was trying to find an ability to combo with modular. Happy Birthday!

Hardened Scales Rarity

Hardened scales seems like the embodiment of "build around uncommon". Why is it rare?

Sometimes “build around me” uncommons unbalance limited enough that they become “build around me” rares. (I have no idea, by the way, if that was the case with this card.)
