Rulings

4
  1. Wizards of the Coast

    The hellbent ability doubles the damage dealt to you by Anthem of Rakdos itself.

  2. Wizards of the Coast

    The first ability triggers once for each creature you attack with. If you attack with three creatures, for example, they’ll each get +2/+0 and you’ll be dealt 3 damage.

  3. Wizards of the Coast

    If damage that would be dealt to a player or creature is affected by both Anthem of Rakdos and a damage prevention effect, that player or that creature’s controller chooses the order to apply the effects. In most cases that player will want to prevent damage, then double what’s left.

  4. Wizards of the Coast

    If a source you control would deal damage to multiple creatures and/or players simultaneously, all of that damage is doubled.
