Flourish (Blue)

Flourish generates a replacement effect that modifies the next time an attack receives a power increase from an effect.

Flourish’s replacement effect will only modify power increases to attacks after Flourish resolves. It does not retroactively modify power increases for effects that have already been applied.

Flourish’s replacement effect applies to effects that increase the power of a weapon’s attack (e.g. Redwood Hammer). However, Flourish’s replacement effect does not apply to power gained by a weapon (e.g. Anothos) even while it’s attacking as there is a difference between a weapon gaining power and a weapon attack gaining power. Any increase to a weapon’s power will be reflected in the weapon’s attack; however, this is not considered an increase to the weapon’s attack.

Flourish’s replacement effect will not apply to power increases from + counters.

If an effect that was modified by Flourish were to no longer apply to an attack, but then is re-applied to that attack later, the application of Flourish’s replacement effect on that particular effect would be lost and no longer modify it when it is reapplied.
