Rulings
  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    After a spell with split second resolves (or otherwise leaves the stack), players may again cast spells and activate abilities before the next object on the stack resolves.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Casting a spell with split second won't affect spells and abilities that are already on the stack.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can't be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Split second doesn't stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Sudden Spoiling affects only creatures the target player controls at the time it resolves. Creatures they begin to control later in the turn won't change power and toughness or lose abilities.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    Sudden Spoiling overwrites any effects that set a creature's power and toughness. Any existing effects or counters that raise, lower, or switch a creature's power and/or toughness continue to apply to the creature's newly-set power and toughness.
