Rulings

  1. 2019-07-12 · wotc — Cavalier of Night’s enters-the-battlefield ability goes on the stack without a target. While that ability is resolving, you may sacrifice another creature. When you do, the reflexive triggered ability triggers and you pick a target creature to be destroyed. This is different from effects that say “If you do . . .” in that players may take actions after you’ve sacrificed the creature but before the target creature is destroyed.
  2. 2019-07-12 · wotc — If a card in a graveyard has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
