Fallen Shinobi Rulings
- Jun 14, 2019 Although the Ninja is attacking, it was never declared as an attacking creature (for purposes of abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks, for example).
- Jun 14, 2019 Any cards you don't cast will remain in exile.
- Jun 14, 2019 As you activate a ninjutsu ability, you reveal the Ninja card in your hand and return the attacking creature. The Ninja isn't put onto the battlefield until the ability resolves. If it leaves your hand before then, it won't enter the battlefield at all.
- Jun 14, 2019 Casting an exiled card causes it to leave exile. You can't cast it multiple times.
- Jun 14, 2019 Fallen Shinobi's triggered ability doesn't change when you can play the exiled cards. For example, if a sorcery card is exiled, you can cast it only during your main phase when the stack is empty. If a land card is exiled, you can play it only during your main phase and only if you have an available land play remaining.
