Kaldheim mechanics: Boast

From the mothership article “Kaldheim Mechanics”:

“Boast abilities can be activated during combat or even after combat—any time in the turn after the creature was declared as an attacker. Unfortunately, this means a creature entering the battlefield attacking won’t allow it to boast…”

• Arni Brokenbrow
• Axgard Braggart
