About Invasion of the Giants

Invasion of the Giants, Enchantment — saga, designed by Jason Felix first released in Jan, 2021 in the set Kaldheim. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.36.

This card would benefit a Giant tribal deck in Magic: the Gathering, providing card advantage, damage potential, and cost reduction for Giant spells. However, there are better cards that offer more consistent value and impact in competitive play, such as Chandra, Torch of Defiance or Mystic Confluence. While Invasion of the Giants could be fun in a casual Giant-themed deck, it may not see play in more competitive environments due to its slower and more conditional effects.

Rules

02/05/21

A chapter ability doesn’t trigger if a lore counter is put on a Saga that already had a number of lore counters greater than or equal to that chapter’s number. For example, the third lore counter put on a Saga causes the chapter III ability to trigger, but chapters I and II won’t trigger again.

02/05/21

As a Saga enters the battlefield, its controller puts a lore counter on it. As your precombat main phase begins (immediately after your draw step), you put another lore counter on each Saga you control. Putting a lore counter on a Saga in either of these ways doesn’t use the stack.

02/05/21

If multiple chapter abilities trigger at the same time, their controller puts them on the stack in any order. If any of them require targets, those targets are chosen as you put the abilities on the stack, before any of those abilities resolve.

02/05/21

Once the number of lore counters on a Saga is greater than or equal to the greatest number among its chapter abilities, the Saga’s controller sacrifices it as soon as its chapter ability has left the stack, most likely by resolving or being countered. This state-based action doesn’t use the stack.

02/05/21

The chapter II ability goes on the stack without a target. You choose whether to reveal a Giant card from your hand after you have drawn a card. When you do, the reflexive triggered ability triggers. This is different than effects that say “If you do” in that players can respond after you’ve revealed the Giant card but before damage is dealt.
