    If Midnight Oil has no hour counters on it, its first triggered ability will continue to trigger and have you draw an additional card, even though you can't remove any counters from it.

  • WotCSep 20, 2016

    If Midnight Oil has only one hour counter on it, its first triggered ability will remove that one counter.

  • WotCSep 20, 2016

    If multiple effects try to set your maximum hand size to a certain number or state that you have no maximum hand size, the one created latest is the one that applies.

  • WotCSep 20, 2016

    If you discard a card during your cleanup step while you control Midnight Oil, its last ability will trigger, and players will get priority in your cleanup step. You'll have another cleanup step after that one before continuing to the next player's turn.

  • WotCSep 20, 2016

    Your maximum hand size is only checked during the cleanup step of your turn. At other times, you may have more cards in hand than your maximum hand size.
