Role Reversal Rulings
5 most recent
- May 3, 2019 Gaining control of a permanent doesn’t cause you to gain control of any Auras or Equipment attached to it.
- May 3, 2019 If one of the target permanents is an illegal target when Role Reversal resolves, the exchange won’t happen.
- May 3, 2019 If the same player controls both permanents when Role Reversal resolves, nothing happens.
- May 3, 2019 Role Reversal’s effect lasts indefinitely. It doesn’t wear off during the cleanup step, and it doesn’t expire if the permanents stop sharing a permanent type after Role Reversal has resolved.
- May 3, 2019 The permanent types are artifact, creature, enchantment, land, and planeswalker. Supertypes, like legendary, aren’t permanent types. For example, you can’t exchange control of a legendary creature with a legendary planeswalker.
