Roil Elemental 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.).

  • Oct 1, 2009

    If Roil Elemental ceases to be under your control before its ability resolves, you won't gain control of the targeted creature at all.

  • Oct 1, 2009

    If Roil Elemental leaves the battlefield, you no longer control it, so all of its control-change effects end.
