Oath stuff

[Milton]

I have an Oath of Durids in play, my opponent has one creature, I have none.  On my upkeep, I acivate Oath and I hit a Gaea's Blessing, then I hit a Grozoth.  Does Grozoth come into play before or after the Gaea's Blessing shuffles everything back into my library?  If Grozoth hits play first, do I then search my Library for cards wtih casting cost = to 9, or do I get to re-shuffle the graveyard first? 

Thanks.

The Oath creature comes into play, and then after that has finished resolving, you have two triggers to put on the stack: the Blessing trigger and the 9-mana dude trigger.  Stack them how you want!

[Jacob Orlove]

Just to clarify, oath puts the cards into your grveyard at the same time as it puts the creature into play. That's why both triggers go on the stack at the same time.

Wow.  That seems very, very good.  Oath up Grozoth, get all 5 moxes, Lotus, Yag Will, Ancestral, Timewalk and whatever.  Then just win.  Is it better than just Oathing up Akroma?

[Komatteru]

Grozoth only lets you search for cards with converted mana cost 9, so it can get these cards:
Grozoth
Teeka's Dragon
Spirit of the Night
Searing Wind
Plague Wind
Colossus of Sardina

and other cards that probably shouldn't be in your deck, let alone your hand.  Grozoth would be BUSTED if it let you search for cards with CMC UP TO 9.  Man....R&D would be shot on sight, no questions asked, if they printed that one!

[Milton]

I get it.  As many cards with converted mana cost of 9 and put them in your hand.  That makes more sense.
