Legalities
Rulings
  • 2016-06-08 The copy of Malicious Affliction is created on the stack. It's not cast, so the copy won't cause the morbid ability to trigger again.
  • 2016-06-08 The copy will have the same target as the original spell unless you choose a new one. You don't have to change this target if you don't want to or can't choose a new legal target (perhaps because there are no other nonblack creatures on the battlefield).
