  • If you cast a commander from your hand, the additional cost based on the number of times you've cast it from your command zone (sometimes referred to as the "commander tax") doesn't apply. Additionally, that casting won't add to the tax if you later cast the commander from the command zone.
  • If your commander isn't in the command zone (or you're not playing Commander) as the last ability resolves, nothing happens.
  • If you have two commanders with the partner ability in the command zone, Command Beacon's effect puts one of your choice into your hand, not both.
  • If you cast a commander from your hand, the commander tax doesn't apply. Additionally, that casting won't add to commander tax if you later cast the commander from the command zone.
  • If you have two commanders with the partner ability in the command zone, Command Beacon's effect puts one of your choice into your hand, not both.
  • If your commander isn't in the command zone (or you don't have a commander) as the last ability resolves, nothing happens.

  • If a token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and won't return to the battlefield.
  • If you gain control of a creature “until end of turn,” you control it during that turn's end step.
  • Once the exiled creature returns, it's considered a new object with no relation to the object that it was. Auras attached to the exiled creature will be put into their owners' graveyards. Equipment attached to the exiled creature will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled creature will cease to exist.
  • When an effect returns the exiled card “under your control,” you control it indefinitely after that. In a multiplayer game, if a player leaves the game, all cards that player owns leave as well. If you leave the game, any creatures you control from Conjurer's Closet effect are exiled.

    Rules

  • If Netherborn Altar leaves the battlefield while its ability is on the stack, the amount of life you lose is determined by the number of soul counters it had on it immediately before it left the battlefield.
  • If you have two commanders in the command zone, Netherborn Altar’s ability puts one of your choice into your hand, not both.
  • If your commander isn’t in the command zone (or if you’re not playing the Commander variant), Netherborn Altar only makes you lose life.
  • Putting a soul counter onto Netherborn Altar is part of the cost to activate its ability, and counting the number of soul counters is done as the ability resolves. Players may take actions between those times to change the number of soul counters, perhaps by removing them all so that you lose no life.
  • The “commander tax” increases based on how many times a commander was cast from the command zone. Casting a commander from your hand doesn’t require that additional cost, and it doesn’t increase what the cost will be the next time you cast that commander from the command zone.
