Boast
MTG Mechanic
Boast abilities can be activated during combat or even after combat—any time in the turn after the creature was declared as an attacker. Unfortunately, this means a creature entering the battlefield attacking won't allow it to boast... but if it is worthy enough, it will survive to attack in a future combat, and then you can sing of its deeds!
Boast Rules
A special kind of activated ability that can be activated only once each turn if the creature with the boast ability attacked that turn. See rule 702.142, “Boast.”
- 702.142a: A boast ability is a special kind of activated ability. “Boast — [Cost]: [Effect]” means “[Cost]: [Effect]. Activate only if this creature attacked this turn and only once each turn.”
- 702.142b: Effects may refer to boast abilities. If an effect refers to a creature boasting, it means its boast ability being activated.
