Petrahydrox

Creature — Weird

(Blue or Red can be paid with either Blue or Red.)
When this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability, return this creature to its owner's hand.

It departs through the streets' fissures with a sound like gravel pouring into a pond.

Rulings (3)
  • Petrahydrox's ability triggers only if it's on the battlefield when it becomes the target of a spell or ability.
  • Petrahydrox's ability resolves before the spell or ability that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell or ability is countered.
  • If the spell or ability that targets Petrahydrox has no other targets, it won't resolve (because it no longer has a legal target after Petrahydrox has returned to its owner's hand).
