Evolution Sage Rulings

  • Nov 8, 2024

    A landfall ability doesn't trigger if a permanent already on the battlefield becomes a land.

  • Nov 8, 2024

    A landfall ability triggers whenever a land you control enters for any reason. It triggers whenever you play a land, as well as whenever a spell or ability puts a land onto the battlefield under your control.

  • Nov 8, 2024

    Whenever a land you control enters, each landfall ability of the permanents you control will trigger. You can put them   on the stack in any order. The last ability you put on the stack will be the first one to resolve (As a result, you can have those abilities resolve in the order of your choosing.).

  • Feb 4, 2023

    An ability that triggers "Whenever you proliferate" triggers even if you chose no permanents or players while doing so.

  • Feb 4, 2023

    If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.
