@__Sanscript @SaffronOlive If you exile the entire deck aside from a single land then you can name zirda when you’re starting up a new game, then put permanents exiled this way into play when the game starts

@verdellshannon @SaffronOlive Bro I love this idea. Winning with battle of wits with combat damage

@EldritchDoe @SaffronOlive I don’t believe that’s what 903.11a is saying. When you’re naming a companion you’re not bringing it into the game. 103.2b is clear that it remains outside the game. 903.11a is indeed about the action of bringing cards into the game

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@SaffronOlive The biggest area of contention I see is what exactly 903.11a looks at when it says “card”. 108.2 defines “card” as a Magic card or an object represented by a Magic card. The question is does it go by the name of the physical card or as it’s currently represented?

@IsaacKing314 No pressure though 😅

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@IsaacKing314 Fan of your work. My question is that when NAP resolves their trigger the creature would be a new object. When AP resolves their trigger wouldn't the instruction "Return enchanted creature card" be referring to the object that was in the graveyard? Also please join my Discord 😀

@Dunkatog what is a pile? According to the glossary it’s a “temporary grouping of cards”. But according to 406.5 cards put in exile that may come back are put in separate “piles”. so would Celestial Toymaker count my Ghostly Flicker as “grouping cards in a pile?”

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@KeiruKeiruRNG @Dunkatog Yup that sounds right to me!

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@KeiruKeiruRNG @Dunkatog As far as I understand state based actions will check, attempt to sacrifice (but can’t) then move on. It won’t keep repeating itself over and over again. It will continue to check on future SBA checks. It can gain lore counters too but won’t trigger anything.

@Dunkatog I actually appreciate that very much

@Dunkatog Hi Jess I was making a video on the Caged Sun loop, but certain wording with the CR made me question whether it could be responded to or not. Can an ability be a mana ability sometimes and sometimes not be a mana ability? Hope to hear from you

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@ManaCurves It’s crazy how hard y’all got hit out there. Stay safe.

@WotC_Matt @Pharmacistjudge I appreciate the answers ya’ll!

@Dunkatog I need to know!! Does Secret Arcade allow The Master of Keys to cast permanent cards with escape?

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@Pharmacistjudge @VeggieWagonYee But to me that is only referring to the rest of the ruling for specifically alternative characteristics or sub characteristics rather than modified or additional characteristics

[Keeping it Casual @chookiemon]

@Pharmacistjudge @VeggieWagonYee That’s how I feel about this too. The argument I hear is the last line of 601.3e where it says “Continuous effects that would apply to that object once it has those characteristics are also considered”. Saying that that allows you to consider the change

@VeggieWagonYee Jesus...

@dtn_plebnation I’m sure I’ll get a lot of it wrong too 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
