Frodo, Sauron's Bane Rulings

  • Jun 16, 2023

    As the Ring tempts you, you get an emblem named The Ring if you don't have one. Then your emblem gains its next ability and you choose a creature you control to become (or remain) your Ring-bearer.

  • Jun 16, 2023

    Each player can have only one emblem named The Ring and only one Ring-bearer at a time.

  • Jun 16, 2023

    Each time the Ring tempts you, you must choose a creature if you control one.

  • Jun 16, 2023

    Frodo, Sauron's Bane's first ability checks whether it's a Citizen, and its second ability checks whether it's a Scout. It doesn't matter how it became the appropriate creature type.

  • Jun 16, 2023

    If the creature you choose as your Ring-bearer was already your Ring-bearer, that still counts as choosing that creature as your Ring-bearer for the purpose of abilities that trigger "whenever you choose a creature as your Ring-bearer" or abilities that care about which creature was chosen as your Ring-bearer.
