Rulings
One official ruling, as Wizards published it.
- 2021-11-19
If Halana and Alena's power is somehow negative at the time its triggered ability resolves, you will put no counters on that creature. The effect doesn't remove counters from that creature or give it -1/-1 counters.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
