- 2018-03-16 · wotc — You can cast Act of Heroism even if the target creature won't be able to block right away, perhaps because you're the attacking player.
- 2018-03-16 · wotc — Untapping an attacking creature doesn't remove it from combat.
- 2018-03-16 · wotc — The effects of Act of Heroism are cumulative. If multiples resolve targeting the same creature, that creature can block that many additional creatures this turn.
