Does Flanking Stack in MTG?
Yes, flanking does stack in MTG! If a creature has multiple instances of flanking (let's say you've somehow managed to give it flanking more than once), each instance works separately. So, if your flanked creature is blocked by a creature without flanking, the blocker gets -1/-1 for each instance of flanking. This can lead to some pretty nifty combat tricks and unexpected victories. Just imagine your opponent's face when their blocker gets weaker and weaker!

Flanking definitely stacks. Each flanking ability triggers independently. So if your creature has flanking twice and gets blocked, the blocking creature would get -2/-2. It's a great way to surprise your opponents and turn the tide of battle. Always fun to see the realization dawn on their face when they do the math mid-combat.
Nope, why bother? Just win the game before they block. #AggroLife
