    Rules

  • If the target permanent you control is an illegal target by the time Blim's ability tries to resolve, the ability doesn't resolve. The other player doesn't gain control of your permanent, and no one loses life or discards cards.
  • Players lose life and discard cards for all permanents they control but don't own, not just the ones they received from you.
  • The control-change effect of Blim's ability lasts indefinitely. It doesn't wear off during the cleanup step, and it doesn't expire if Blim leaves the battlefield. In a multiplayer game, it does expire if the current controller leaves the game.
  • The player who was dealt damage can't refuse your generous gift. That would be rude.
  • You choose which permanent the player gains control of, not the player who was dealt damage.

    Flying Whenever Blim deals combat damage to a player, that player gains control of target permanent you control. Then each player loses life and discards cards equal to the number of permanents they control but don't own.

    Flying

    Rules

  • If the chosen creature to exchange is not on the battlefield at resolution, then sacrifice this card.
  • This ability is targeted, so Protection can prevent targeting if it exists when the ability would be put on the stack. Once the ability is on the stack, adding Protection will not counter the ability but the exchange will not take place since the target is illegal and you sacrifice this card on resolution.

    Rules

  • If Xantcha can't attack for any reason (such as being tapped or having come under that player's control that turn), then it doesn't attack. If there's a cost associated with having it attack, the player isn't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't have to attack in that case either.
  • If a player creates a token that's a copy of Xantcha, the player who creates the token is its owner, not the player under whose control it enters the battlefield. This is a change from previous rules.
  • The player who draws a card when Xantcha's last ability resolves is the player who activated the ability.
  • Xantcha's controller may activate its last ability. In this case, the same player loses 2 life and draws a card.
  • Xantcha's first ability is a replacement effect that modifies how it enters the battlefield, not a triggered ability. Players can't take actions (such as activating its last ability) while Xantcha's on the battlefield before it's controlled by another player.
  • In a multiplayer game, if Xantcha's owner leaves the game, Xantcha leaves the game with them. If Xantcha's controller leaves the game, Xantcha is exiled. This is a change from previous rulings due to Xantcha's updated wording.
