Guile Rules Text & Legality

Guile

This creature can't be blocked except by three or more creatures.

If a spell or ability you control would counter a spell, instead exile that spell and you may play that card without paying its mana cost.

When Guile is put into a graveyard from anywhere, shuffle it into its owner's library.

Guile is legal in Modern, Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer and Pauper.

Guile Rulings

  • Oct 1, 2007

    A spell exiled this way was never actually countered.

  • Oct 1, 2007

    Although this ability triggers when the Incarnation is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, it doesn't *specifically* trigger on leaving the battlefield, so it doesn't behave like other leaves-the-battlefield abilities. The ability will trigger from the graveyard.

  • Oct 1, 2007

    Exiling the spell is mandatory. Casting it is not.

  • Oct 1, 2007

    Guile's second ability replaces "counter [a certain spell]" with "exile [a certain spell] and you may cast it without paying its mana cost." You have the option to cast it immediately upon its exile. If you choose not to, it remains exiled and you don't get another chance to cast it. If the spell or ability that tried to counter the spell has additional effects, it then continues to resolve.

  • Oct 1, 2007

    If a spell or ability you control attempts to counter a spell that can't be countered, it doesn't. Since the spell wouldn't be countered, Guile's ability has no effect on it. The spell will continue to resolve normally.
