Raphael, the Muscle Rulings

5 most recent
  • Jan 27, 2026 An effect that checks whether you control your commander is satisfied if you control one or both of your two commanders.
  • Jan 27, 2026 Both commanders start in the command zone, and the remaining 98 cards of your deck are shuffled to become your library.
  • Jan 27, 2026 If damage dealt by a creature you control with counters on it is being divided or assigned among multiple permanents and/or players, that damage is divided or assigned before doubling. For example, if you attack with a 5/5 creature with trample and it's blocked by a 2/2 creature, you can assign 2 damage to the blocker and 3 damage to the defending player. Those amounts are then doubled to 4 and 6, respectively.
  • Jan 27, 2026 If other effects modify how much damage a creature you control with counters on it would deal—by preventing some of it, for example—the player being dealt damage or the controller of the permanent being dealt damage chooses the order in which any such effects (including Raphael's) apply. If all of the damage is prevented, Raphael's effect no longer applies.
  • Jan 27, 2026 If something refers to your commander while you have two commanders, it refers to one of them of your choice. If you are instructed to perform an action on your commander (e.g. put it from the command zone into your hand due to Command Beacon), you choose one of your commanders at the time the effect happens.
