For the sake of apetty issues:


1) Does Mimic gain all characters powers for the TURN or when he comes into play?

2) If I have Holocaust in play, and attack with a one drop does Holocaust effect trigger and they both get stunned?

Holocaust's wording:

Whenever another character defends, stun all attackers and defenders.

Thanks! [confused]

1.) Once mimic enters play he gains all opposing characters powers and keywords for the rest of the time he is in play. If he stays in play for 15 more turns he would have all those abilities for those turns.

2.) If you take a one-drop into an 8-Drop that is NOT Holocaust, both stun. If your opponent takes a one-drop into one of your characters that is NOT Holocaust, they both stun.

Welcome to MEV, land of the broken.
Enjoy,

From the MEVFAQ

Mimic, Earth-12 * Infected
Character, 6, Exiles/X-Men, 13/12, Flight, Range
Shift <p> When Mimic enters play, he gains the printed powers and keywords of all opposing characters. Any reference to an affiliation in the gained powers is changed to Exiles.

This card has received errata. The updated text is italicized. Mimic gains the printed keywords and powers of opposing characters (even if they’re stunned) in addition to any he has already. He gains any printed cosmic powers of each opposing character whether or not that character has a cosmic counter, but they will be active only if Mimic somehow gains a cosmic counter. Mimic’s actual printed information doesn't change. Any additional “enters play” powers he gains are gained too late to trigger as he enters play. This modifier lasts for the rest of the game and continuously updates Mimic's powers and keywords as opposing characters enter and leave play.


and tis is from the OCR

Holocaust, Earth-295 * War (MEV-139R)
Character, 8, Exiles/Horsemen of Apocalypse, 17/17, Flight, Range
Shift <p> Whenever ANOTHER character defends, stun all attackers and defenders.

Another signifies a character that is not Holocaust.

I know, I just had to post to clear the air on some things...the Holocaust question came from someone getting PWNd by Purifiers and the Mimic question came cause of Horsemen

...ok for the sake of those who can't read...Are you saying that after mimic has entered play, does he gain the powers and keywords of characters that come into play for that turn, and all additional turns?

Yes, and I am not saying it, the MEXFAQ is.

This modifier lasts for the rest of the game and continuously updates Mimic's powers and keywords as opposing characters enter and leave play.
