Does this work?
...Hee. 109.2c... 119.7... 609.7... nope! Evil! :D
Thank you!
I hadn't realised until I looked how carefully the cards were designed to avoid damage being dealt by anything other than a permanent or spell.
I don't know why "choose a source" doesn't just say "any object", I don't see what harm that would do.
What? I can't see any problem here.
Check out Comp Rule 609.7 or 119.7.
This can work, but only if you have a Strionic Resonator to get a copy of the triggered ability on top of the activated ability...and of course the 11 mana to pay for everything.
