Aura Thief Rulings
- Oct 4, 2004 Gaining control of an enchantment often isn’t very interesting since it probably won’t change what the enchantment is doing. It only matters if the enchantment does something specifically to “you” or “an opponent” or if the enchantment has an activated ability (which only the controller can use).
