  • WotCSep 20, 2024

    Each player must vote for one of the available options. They can't abstain.

  • WotCSep 20, 2024

    No player votes until Expropriate resolves. Any responses to the spell must be made without knowing the outcome of the vote.

  • WotCSep 20, 2024

    Votes are cast in turn order, and each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    Because the votes are made in turn order, each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    If a creature with an enters-the-battlefield council's dilemma ability leaves the battlefield before that ability resolves, players can still vote for any option that would put +1/+1 counters on that creature, even though—or perhaps especially because—those votes won't generate an effect.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    No player votes until the spell or ability resolves. Any responses to that spell or ability must be made without knowing the outcome of the vote.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    Players can't do anything between voting and finishing the resolution of the spell or ability that included the vote.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    The effects of each council's dilemma ability happen in the stated order. First the vote occurs, then the first effect, and finally the second effect.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    Unlike the will of the council cards from the original Conspiracy set, where a majority of votes determined what happened, each vote made for a council's dilemma card adds to the ultimate effect.

  • WotCAug 23, 2016

    You must vote for one of the available options. You can't abstain.
