Rulings

  1. 2023-10-13 · wotc — If no card is revealed, most likely because that player's library is empty, the exploring creature receives a +1/+1 counter.
  2. 2023-10-13 · wotc — Once an ability that causes a creature to explore begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Notably, opponents can't try to remove the exploring creature after you reveal a nonland card but before it receives a counter.
  3. 2023-10-13 · wotc — If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to explore but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still explores. If you reveal a nonland card this way, you won't put a +1/+1 counter on anything, but you may put the revealed card into your graveyard. Effects that trigger "whenever a creature you control explores" trigger if appropriate.
  4. 2024-11-08 · wotc — Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
  5. 2024-11-08 · wotc — You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
  6. 2024-11-08 · wotc — If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Tough Cookie (an Artifact Creature — Food Golem) to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability (an ability with "Sacrifice a Food" in its cost).
  7. 2024-11-08 · wotc — Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
