W (1) |
Rinascimento (Uncommon) |
| When Abu Ja'far is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, destroy all creatures blocking or blocked by it. They can't be regenerated. |
- Protection from White will not keep a creature from being destroyed by Abu's power because combat abilities are not considered to be targeted. [D'Angelo 1994/06/01]
- The ability affects creatures that are currently blocking or blocked by it. It does not affect ones in the past. [D'Angelo 2006/08/24]

- Extended tournaments (see Rule 803) have banned this card since 1999/10/01.

- If the card being targeted by the Bronze Tablet is removed before Tablet takes effect, then the Tablet ability is countered and it remains tapped. [D'Angelo 2001/08/31]

As Cursed Rack enters the battlefield, choose an opponent. The chosen player's maximum hand size is four. |

At the beginning of your upkeep, you may exile any number of tokens put onto the battlefield with Tetravus. If you do, put that many +1/+1 counters on Tetravus. |
- You choose the order in which the two triggered abilities are put on the stack. So it's possible to order them so you can create Tetravite tokens then immediately convert them back into +1/+1 counters, or vice versa. [D'Angelo 2008/07/12]
- A token creature gets summoning sickness (see Rule G19.39), so it cannot attack on the turn it enters play. [D'Angelo 1998/02/03]
- If the Tetravus is destroyed when the Tetravites are off the card, they are not destroyed, they are just orphaned. [bethmo 1994/06/01]
- Any +1/+1 counter which is on this card can be turned into a Tetravite token. It does not care where the +1/+1 counter came from. [WotC Rules Team 1998/03/01]
- Only Tetravites from this specific Tetravus may be removed for the ability. Ones from a different Tetravus can't. [D'Angelo 2001/08/31]
- A Clone of Tetravus does get the counters since this is done as it comes into play. A Vesuvan Doppelganger only gets tokens if it copies the Tetravus at the time it is played and not as a later doppel effect. [WotC Rules Team 1994/07/27]
- Extended tournaments (see Rule 803) have banned this card since 1999/10/01.

Rinascimento (Uncommon) |
Triskelion enters the battlefield with three +1/+1 counters on it. Remove a +1/+1 counter from Triskelion: Triskelion deals 1 damage to target creature or player. |
- Counters are removed one at a time, so as soon as you remove one that causes its toughness to drop to the amount of damage it has, it is destroyed. [D'Angelo 1996/11/08]
- Counters can be used on the turn it enters play because it does not require tapping. [bethmo 1994/06/01]
- Extended tournaments (see Rule 803) banned this card from 1999/10/01 until 2003/10/19.

Rinascimento (Common) |
| You may tap or untap target artifact, creature, or land. |
- The opponent gets a chance to use the card being Twiddled in response to this spell if they so wish and if the card's ability is legal at the time. [D'Angelo 1994/06/01]
- Any cards which might trigger off a card becoming tapped will trigger. Thus, a Psychic Venom on a land that becomes tapped will cause 2 damage. [D'Angelo 1995/03/12] Similarly, if the card itself triggers on its own tapping, such as City of Brass, the ability will still happen. [D'Angelo 1995/04/12]
- The decision to tap or untap is made on resolution. [D'Angelo 2000/03/03] This is not a modal spell.
- The choice of target gives free range of lands, creatures, and artifacts. You do not lock in on one type as a casting decision. If the spell is Forked or redirected, the type is not fixed. [Duelist Magazine #8, Page 50]
- Twiddle to tap can target a tapped card, and Twiddle to untap can target an untapped card. [Duelist Magazine #5, Page 23]
- This is not a toggle effect. If you use Twiddle to tap a card and before it takes effect your opponent taps it, Twiddle will not untap the card. [bethmo 1994/04/01]
