Conjurer's Ban

Sorcery, WB (2)
Name a card. Until your next turn, the named card can't be played.
Draw a card.
Orzhov faithful file past to have their minds purged of "impure" desires. There, the guiltwardens eliminate any thoughts of hope or self-sufficiency.

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

• 2/1/2006: Players may cast spells while Conjurer's Ban is on the stack. Only after all players pass priority does Conjurer's Ban resolve, and that's when you name a card. Once you name a card, that card can't be played in response.
• 2/1/2006: You may name a land card to prevent it from being played.
• 2/1/2006: Conjurer's Ban only affects cards. A copy of a card (for example, one created by Eye of the Storm isn't a card, so it can be played.
• 8/1/2008: This can't be used as a counterspell. It will have no effect on spells which were on the stack when it was cast, nor on those cast in response to it.
