Each player chooses from the permanents he or she controls an artifact, a creature, an enchantment, and a land, then sacrifices the rest.1
The Weatherlight dragged the Predator behind it, the cradle hauling the casket.
Illus. Jim Nelson
Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries
- If you control a permanent with more than one type, you can choose that same permanent for more than one of the choices if you want to. [Barclay 1998/06/10] This makes it possible to select a Brass Man as both your artifact and creature, and then select a land and thereby keep only two cards. You probably won't want to do this often, but it is an option. [D'Angelo 1998/08/19]
- If you control a permanent with more than one type, you can choose that permanent to be the representative of either type. This makes it possible to have more than one creature (or other permanent type) in play. For example, if you select a Scryb Sprites for your creature and a Brass Man for your artifact, you get to keep both of these creatures. [D'Angelo 1998/07/23]
- The permanents to save are chosen on resolution. You do not choose them when announcing the spell. [WotC Rules Team 1998/08/01]
- The current player makes their choices before the other player. After both players make choices, all the sacrifices are done simultaneously. [D'Angelo 1998/11/04]

Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries
- The life total is checked when it triggers and the ability will be put on the stack only if you have 10 life or less. It checks again on resolution and does nothing if you have more life by then. [D'Angelo 1999/06/01]

- The check for the number of lands in play is made at the beginning of upkeep and this ability does not trigger if the condition is not met. The condition is also checked on resolution and the ability does nothing if it is not still true. [D'Angelo 1999/06/01]

- If used after damage is assigned, the damage is still prevented. This is a Reversal of a previous ruling under old text. [D'Angelo 1999/08/17]
- If used after damage is resolved but before the end of combat, the damage prevention part of the ability doesn't do anything, but you still get to untap your attacking creature. [Jordan 2003/11/23]
