Anowon, the Ruin Thief Rules Text & Legality
Other Rogues you control get +1/+1.
Whenever one or more Rogues you control deal combat damage to a player, that player mills a card for each 1 damage dealt to them. If the player mills at least one creature card this way, you draw a card. (To mill a card, a player puts the top card of their library into their graveyard.)
Anowon, the Ruin Thief is legal in Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Pauper.
Anowon, the Ruin Thief Rulings
- Sep 25, 2020 Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to other Rogues you control may become lethal if Anowon leaves the battlefield during that turn.
- Sep 25, 2020 If Rogues you control deal combat damage to two players at once, Anowon’s ability triggers twice.
- Sep 25, 2020 The player dealt combat damage mills cards only for the damage dealt by your Rogues, not for any other combat damage dealt to them at the same time.
- Sep 25, 2020 You draw just one card, no matter how many creature cards the player mills beyond the first.
