  • Jan 19, 2018 There are many important moments in the story, but the most crucial—called “story spotlights”—are shown on cards. These cards have the Planeswalker symbol in their text box; this symbol has no effect on gameplay. You can read more about these events in the official Magic fiction at http://www.mtgstory.com.
  • Sep 20, 2016 If a spell has multiple targets, it doesn't have a single target even if the same object is chosen for each of those targets.
  • Sep 20, 2016 If the spell can't target the enchanted creature, its target remains unchanged.
  • Sep 20, 2016 If there is more than one Captured by the Consulate on the battlefield, the triggered ability of each one will change the target if able. The last one to resolve determines what that spell finally targets. If one player controls more than one Capture by the Consulate, they choose the order in which they resolve. If multiple players control those Auras, the first player among them in turn order (starting with the player whose turn it is now) is the one whose triggered ability resolves last.
  • Sep 20, 2016 When a player casts an Aura spell, it targets the creature that it will enchant and may cause Captured by the Consulate's last ability to trigger.
