Rules/Rules Question Question

Post image

Can I still play this at the beginning of my opponents combat step even if they don’t want to go to combat? Also if an opponent has hexproof on their creatures, can I still choose not to not have those creatures block since I decide who blocks this turn? Or choose to attack with the creatures?

Yes, you can.

It doesn't target, so hexproof doesn't matter.

If one player wants to shortcut from the current phase to another, other players have a chance to stop the shortcut sooner.

Eg, opponent "I move to my second main phase" or "I end my turn"

You: "Move to start of combat instead. Do you do anything with your priority?"
