  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    Heroic abilities will resolve before the spell that caused them to trigger.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    Heroic abilities will trigger only once per spell, even if that spell targets the creature with the heroic ability multiple times.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    Heroic abilities won't trigger when a copy of a spell is created on the stack or when a spell's targets are changed to include a creature with a heroic ability.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    Scry appears on some spells and abilities with one or more targets. If all of the spell or ability's targets are illegal when it tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't scry.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    When you scry, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards on the bottom of your library, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them on the bottom.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    You choose how to order cards returned to your library after scrying no matter where you put them.

  • WotCSep 15, 2013

    You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, that means you'll scry last. For others, that means you'll scry and then perform other actions.
