Not A Bug Demigod of Revenge

[Gingersnorlax1993]

Greetings,

Demigod of Revenge is miscoded in MTGO. Demigod of Revenge is coded as a cast trigger when the card printing states a play trigger. The cast trigger prevents all the Demigod of Revenges in a graveyard to come out of the graveyard when it is reanimated with cards like Persist.

Demigod of Revenge card text " Flying, Haste - When you play Demigod of Revenge, return all cards named Demigod of Revenge from your graveyard to play."

Rulings

5/1/2008	This ability triggers when you cast Demigod of Revenge as a spell. It won't trigger if Demigod of Revenge is put directly onto the battlefield.
5/1/2008	The triggered ability will resolve before Demigod of Revenge will.
5/1/2008	If Demigod of Revenge is countered *before* its triggered ability resolves, the ability will still resolve. It will return that Demigod of Revenge from your graveyard to the battlefield, as well as any others. If you're casting a spell to counter Demigod of Revenge, it's important to clarify you're casting it *after* the triggered ability resolves if you don't want that Demigod of Revenge to be put onto the battlefield.
