Close Quarters
Enchantment
Whenever a creature you control becomes blocked, Close Quarters deals 1 damage to target creature or player.
TehGrief on Classifying "Block" Procs
2 years ago
I am just wanting to ensure that a card does what I want it to. I have a janky deck set up that forces a lot of blocks.
Both Battle Strain and Heat of Battle trigger on the opponents creature blocking - these are very straightforward and make sense.
Close Quarters, however, triggers when a creature you control gets blocked.
I guess what I am asking is whether the state of "Blocked" is dichotomous; when a creature is blocked by any number of creatures, does it only count as being blocked? Or is the creature "blocked" by each creature blocking it?
The reason I ask is because Infiltration Lens triggers for each creature that is blocking the equipped creature, but the wording is ever-so-slightly different for Close Quarters.
