At the beginning of each opponent's combat phase, separate all creatures that player controls into two piles. Only creatures in the pile of his or her choice can attack this turn.1

Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries
- Creatures which comes into play (or cards which become creatures) after the beginning of combat ability resolves are not placed in either pile and are not affected by this ability. [Jordan 2001/02/13]

- If you have two of these, then two of these effects will be applied in order. The first time, the player gets to pick a set that can attack and the other set cannot. The second time, it does not matter what you do with the set that could not attack, so you split up the ones that still could attack. [D'Angelo 2002/06/18]

"The earth shook, the sky rained fire, and it seemed the world was ending." -Benalish refugee
Illus. Greg Staples
Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries
- You sacrifice all lands other than the chosen ones. Since you can only choose basic lands, your non-basic lands are all going to be sacrificed (unless you have non-basic lands that also count as a basic land type, in which case you could choose them). [D'Angelo 2001/01/16]
- If a land counts as multiple basic land types (for example, Taiga is both a Forest and a Mountain), you can choose it for either or for both of those land types. [Jordan 2001/02/12]
