Isareth the Awakener Rulings

5 most recent
  • Jul 13, 2018 Because all attacking creatures are chosen at once, a creature returned this way can't attack during the same combat as it returns, even if it has haste.
  • Jul 13, 2018 Because to die means to be put into a graveyard from the battlefield, a creature that is exiled instead doesn't "die." Abilities that would trigger when it dies won't trigger.
  • Jul 13, 2018 If Isareth leaves the battlefield, the replacement effect continues to apply. If one of the creatures it returned would leave the battlefield, it'll be exiled instead.
  • Jul 13, 2018 If a card in your graveyard has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • Jul 13, 2018 If you somehow remove a corpse counter from a creature Isareth has returned to the battlefield, the replacement effect that will exile it continues to apply. The counter is only to help remind you which creatures will be exiled if they would leave the battlefield.
