Black Mage's Rod Rulings

  • Jun 6, 2025

    If the Hero token is destroyed, the Equipment stays on the battlefield.

  • Jun 6, 2025

    If the job select ability causes two Hero tokens to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to only one of them.

  • Jun 6, 2025

    The Hero token enters as a 1/1 creature, then the Equipment becomes attached to it. Abilities that trigger when a creature enters the battlefield see that a 1/1 creature entered the battlefield.

  • Jun 6, 2025

    The granted ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.

  • Jun 6, 2025

    You may pay the Equipment's equip cost as normal to move it from the Hero token to another creature you control.
