Auratouched Mage

Creature - Human Wizard 3/3, 5W (6)
When Auratouched Mage enters the battlefield, search your library for an Aura card that could enchant it. If Auratouched Mage is still on the battlefield, attach that Aura to it. Otherwise, reveal the Aura card and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library.1
Illus. Jeff Miracola

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2005: Any Aura card you find must be able to enchant Auratouched Mage as it currently exists, or as it most recently existed on the battlefield if it's no longer on the battlefield. If an effect has made the Mage an artifact, for example, you could search for an Aura with "enchant artifact."

Truth shines even in darkness. Those who march on the side of truth walk always in righteous light.
Illus. Alex Horley-Orlandelli

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2005: The color you choose as the spell resolves has nothing to do with the color or colors shared by the affected creatures.
  • 10/1/2005: All creatures that share a color are affected, even your own.
  • 10/1/2005: A creature "shares a color" with any creature that is at least one of its colors. For example, a green-white creature shares a color with creatures that are green, white, green-white, red-white, black-green, and so on.
  • 10/1/2005: If it targets a colorless creature, it doesn't affect any other creatures. A colorless creature shares a color with nothing, not even other colorless creatures.
  • 10/1/2005: You check which creatures share a color with the target when the spell resolves.
  • 10/1/2005: Only one creature is targeted. If that creature leaves the battlefield or otherwise becomes an illegal target, the entire spell is countered. No other creatures are affected.

Concerted Effort

Enchantment, 2WW (4)
At the beginning of each upkeep, all creatures you control gain flying until end of turn if a creature you control has flying. The same is true for fear, first strike, double strike, landwalk, protection, trample, and vigilance.1
Illus. Michael Sutfin

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2005: For example, a player controls three creatures when Concerted Effort's ability resolves: one creature with flying and protection from red, one with islandwalk and protection from green; and one with vigilance. All three creatures will have flying, islandwalk, vigilance, protection from red, and protection from green until the end of the turn.
  • 10/1/2005: Creatures keep all abilities granted this way until the end of the turn, even if Concerted Effort or the original creature with that ability leaves the battlefield.
  • 5/1/2006: In Two-Headed Giant, triggers only once per upkeep, not once for each player.

Illus. Ron Spears

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2005: The card that was enchanted comes back onto the battlefield first, regardless of whether it's still a creature. Then any Auras exiled that can legally enchant that card come back. Any Auras that can't enchant that permanent remain exiled.
  • 10/1/2005: If the enchanted creature was a token, it ceased to exist when it was exiled. Any Auras that were attached to it (including Flickerform) remain exiled.
  • 10/1/2005: If the enchanted creature was also enchanted by Copy Enchantment, Copy Enchantment will come back onto the battlefield attached to that permanent. As Copy Enchantment returns to the battlefield, its controller may choose any enchantment on the battlefield for it to copy. It can't copy Flickerform or any other Aura returning to the battlefield at the same time. If it copies a non-Aura enchantment, it will become unattached from the permanent and remain on the battlefield.

Ghosts of the Innocent

Creature - Spirit 4/5, 5WW (7)
If a source would deal damage to a creature or player, it deals half that damage, rounded down, to that creature or player instead.
Ma said we should offer up blini-cakes and salt to the good ones, but I get that chill up my spine and just shut the door.
- Otak, Tin Street shopkeep
Illus. Kev Walker

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2005: If a damage prevention effect and Ghosts of the Innocent's effect would apply to the same damage, the player or the controller of the creature being dealt damage may apply the effects in either order (most likely applying the halving effect first).
  • 10/1/2005: Half of 1 rounded down is 0. A source that would deal 1 damage to a creature or player won't deal damage to that creature or player at all.
  • 10/1/2005: Multiple Ghosts of the Innocent effects are cumulative, and each will halve the damage, rounded down. For example, with three on the battlefield, 14 damage becomes 7, then 3, then finally 1, and only 1 damage would actually be dealt.
  • 10/1/2005: This isn't a damage prevention effect. If Excruciator ("Damage that would be dealt by Excruciator can't be prevented") would deal 7 damage to a creature or player, it deals 3 damage instead.
  • 10/1/2005: If damage is redirected, it's only halved once.
  • 10/1/2005: If both Ghosts of the Innocent and Furnace of Rath (which doubles damage) are on the battlefield, the controller of the creature being dealt damage or the player being dealt damage can apply the effects in either order. This can matter if the original amount of damage is odd. For example, if a source would deal 3 damage, Ghosts of the Innocent would make it 1 damage, then Furnace of Rath would make it 2 damage, if the player chose to apply the effects in that order.
