I play Ferocious Charge on a creature I control
(Ferocious Charge: Target creature gets +4/+4 until end of turn.
Scry 2 (Look at the top two cards of your library. Put any number of them on
the bottom of your library and the rest on top in any order.)
My opponent responds with Magma Jet (or any order direct damage spell or
ability) which
kills the creature I targetted with Ferocious Charge. Does the Scry ability
resolve?
My opponent states that the first part of the spell fizzles, so the second
part also fizzles.
I state that since the spell was legal when I played it (targets were chosen
etc.) I must
let resolve as many "parts" of the spell as possible. The +4/+4 fizzles, but
the Scry 2 resolves.
thanks!!
