So a friend and I have just got back into Magic after about a 20 year break. Anyways, we were playing and we don't know exactly how abilities and spells stack. SO here is what happened:
I played a Banewhip Punisher and put the -1/-1 counter on his Nightmare. I then use her ability which dsetroys target creature with a -1/-1 counter, his Nightmare, but then he uses his Icy Manipulator and Royal Assassin to tap and kill my Banewhip Punisher.
Does the Nightmare and my Banewhip Punisher both die (my thought)? Does just my Banewhip Punisher die?
Any help would be appreciated.

He has 4 royal assassins which are the main guys that get me. He has several cards that return them from the grave, icy manipulators and some cards that force me to attack.
I was thinking maybe a similar deck that has assassins and destroy target creature spells. Would this be effective? Kinda like beating him at his own game.
Hey all. I used to play magic a lot about 20 years ago back with 3rd,4th edition and ice age. Just recently got back into it because I just found out a buddy of mine used to play during the same years and we both still had our cards. I’ve recently bought an hour of devastation fat pack and have had fun making a couple new decks.
Anyways my friend has an assassin deck and it pisses me off because he always beats me with it. Can anyone recommend a good deck to counter this and keep it around $20? Thanks!!

Since coming back to magic there are a million new things I’m trying to learn.
