Baron Strucker, HYDRA Overlord keyword rules

Connive Rule 701.47

Certain abilities instruct a permanent to connive. To do so, that permanent’s controller draws a card, then discards a card. If a nonland card is discarded this way, that player puts a +1/+1 counter on the conniving permanent.

A permanent “connives” after the process described in rule is complete, even if some or all of those actions were impossible.

If a permanent changes zones before an effect causes it to connive, its last known information is used to determine which object connived and who controlled it.

If multiple permanents are instructed to connive at the same time, the first player in APNAP order who controls one or more of those permanents chooses one of them and it connives. Then if any permanents remain on the battlefield which have been instructed to connive and have not done so, this process is repeated.

Connive N is a variant of connive. The permanent’s controller draws N cards, discards N cards, then puts a number of +1/+1 counters on the permanent equal to the number of nonland cards discarded this way.
