You can do this. You will receive priority after your opponent casts the removal spell, so you have a chance to activate Kuldotha Forgemaster's ability and put the Spellskite onto the battlefield. Assuming the Spellskite is a legal target for the removal (not Go For the Throat for example), the spell's target will change to Spellskite.
Note: If the spell was a Go For the Throat or another spell that Spellskite is not a legal target for, you could still activate Spellskite's ability (because the spell is still a legal target for Spellskite's ability), but the target wouldn't change.
Assuming you mean Walking Atlas, then yes, this will work. As Kenjiblade stated, landfall abilities do not care how a land enters the battlefield under your control, only that it does. If you use the atlas, the landfall ability will trigger and allow player B to destroy the creature before it gains hexproof.
The Spectral Flight is countered for having no legal target on resolution. Even though the Strangleroot Geist ends up back on the battlefield after it dies, it is considered a different object as far as the game rules are concerned.

hmm, forgot that was a zone too! If I include the stack, will it still stop Generals from being cast from the command zone?
Not as worded. The general will go: command zone -> stack -> battlefield and your enchantment will not care. Also, as a general design rule, cards should not reference the stack directly.

Cards cannot be cast from any zone other than a player's hand (you can also exclude instants or sorceries if you want).
Permanent cards cannot enter the battlefield from graveyards, libraries or exile.
You have to specify that it can't be cast from another zone instead of enter the battlefield. The second line shouldn't need to specify the command zone, as there are currently not any cards that can yank a permanent out of the command zone and put it directly onto the battlefield.
Sure, he's an awful general, but he's very EDH playable outside that
Yeah. That's why I changed my card. I figured he could be part of a cycle of mono-colored sunburst legends that is nuts when playing 5 colors, but horrible otherwise. My new card is just not good.
EDIT: I changed it back. But yes, Brushwagg, Snow is a type of mana, so you could search for a Snow Covered Mountain instead of forest. Technically, if you only spent green to play it, but any of it was snow, you could grab 2 lands, as long as one was a snow land.

Whenever a player casts a permanent spell, if it has the same name as a permanent he or she controls, counter that spell. If you do, that player may draw a card.
Whenver a nonbasic land enters the battlefield, if it has the same name as another permanent controlled by the same player, its controller sacrifices it. If they do, they may search their library for a basic land card and put it into play tapped.
I agree with Felllix's wording. The way you have the ability worded is kind of cool, partially because it isn't a triggered ability, so can't be Stifled, but there are issues with how it interacts with trample. The way that trample works with this ability will still result in the attacking player being able to assign excess damage to the player, because that excess damage isn't interacting with the Rhox's ability. The Rhox will only see the damage assigned to it by the trampler, so the ability won't do anything.
I forgot about the Bant plane. That's fine then. I just felt that "divinity" has more of a Kamigawa feel b/c most other planes don't have the same style of spiritual/divine creatures. That said, it is an existing type of counter, which is better than inventing a new one, and also allows minor synergy with the Myojin.
I'm also not sold that Liliana "obsoletes" Mind Rot. Mind Rot does not have the double-black color requirement, which Liliana does. Granted, in a MBC constructed deck, she is pretty much better, but outside of this, I think she is reasonable. I also kinda wish that Liliana was "Liliana, the Gravekeeper" to mirror "Iadera, the Grovekeeper".
If you're building a deck specifically to combat infect, you can also more readily rely on phyrexian mana spells from off colors. Since most of their creatures won't be dealing you regular damage, life payment really isn't that much of an issue.

To do phyrexian mana, you do [ mana ] { pu } [ /mana ] without the spaces. You need the squiggly brackets to group the p and the color so it knows how to read it. Also : sympu : without the spaces works

Since you are the active player, you can stack the two triggers however you want.
That said, it doesn't actually matter how the two triggers are stacked, for two (kinda related) reasons.
1) Exalted only cares about creatures that are declared as attackers. The angel is put into play already attacking, so it never actually "attacked".
2) Exalted has already triggered anyways, and doesn't have an intervening if clause, so it won't check to see what's going on after it triggers.
That said, the angel token that comes into play will have exalted (thanks to the Sublime Archangel, but its exalted ability will not trigger, because the opportunity for that trigger to fire will have already passed. The geist will end up receiving the bonus from 3 instances of exalted and be a 5/5.
Uh, if lili ults on turn 1, thats insane. -X to discard cards is a big No.
I would say Lili's ult is fine. If she ults on turn 1, it's basically a Mind Rot one turn early, which is not overpowered for a mythic rare. I like Sigis's changes.
My only other gripe is that divinity counters were used exclusively in Kamigawa, and there are no Rhox on Kamigawa. I think that Rhodan should be a kitsune planeswalker.
Note: If the spell was a Go For the Throat or another spell that Spellskite is not a legal target for, you could still activate Spellskite's ability (because the spell is still a legal target for Spellskite's ability), but the target wouldn't change.
No problem! Happy to help!
