    Deathtouch Whenever you commit a crime, target creature you control gains your choice of menace or lifelink until end of turn. (Targeting opponents, anything they control, and/or cards in their graveyards is a crime.)

    You choose which ability the target creature gets as Rattleback Apothecary’s triggered ability resolves.

    For example, an ability that triggers when you cast a spell that targets an opponent will trigger at the same time as an ability that triggers whenever you commit a crime. Those abilities can be put on the stack in either order (if you control them both), and they’ll both resolve before the spell that caused them to trigger.

    Apr 12, 2024

    A player commits a crime as they cast a spell, activate an ability, or put a triggered ability on the stack that targets at least one opponent, at least one permanent, spell, or ability an opponent controls, and/or at least one card in an opponent’s graveyard.
