Rulings

  1. 2022-04-29 · wotc — If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to connive but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still connives. If you discard a nonland card this way, you won't put a +1/+1 counter on anything. Abilities that trigger “when [that creature] connives” will trigger.
  2. 2022-04-29 · wotc — Once an ability that causes a creature to connive begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Notably, opponents can't try to remove the conniving creature after you discard a nonland card but before it receives a counter.
  3. 2022-04-29 · wotc — If no card is discarded, most likely because that player's hand is empty and an effect says they can't draw cards, the conniving creature does not receive a +1/+1 counter.
  4. 2022-04-29 · wotc — Use Raffine's Silencer's power as it last existed on the battlefield to determine the value of X.
