Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
After the combat damage step, you have the end of combat step. The end of combat step
is a cleanup, of sorts. It's the last opportunity, also, for either player to play spells still
in the combat phase. This card, called Necksnap, says "destroy target attacking or blocking
creature." It can be casted outside of the main phase because it's an instant. That makes
is special and that means that you can cast it during combat. However, once the end of
combat step concludes, this spell won't work on either of the attacking creatures. The
end of combat step is the last opportunity because once the end of combat step is over;
these are no longer attacking creatures.
