These are the best ways to get your question answered in a quick, coherent manner:
1. First, Look up the latest oracle card text. You can do this at
gatherer.wizards.com for the latest text straight from the WoTC site. Clicking on the link to the card also supplies rulings for that card, which may be of use. Star City
www.starcitygames.comis also a good place because when you search for a card and go into the individual card page, you can click on a link that has all rules questions matching that card from the Star City "Ask the Judge" database.
2. If the question is a mechanic-type question or something that can't be answered just with card text, look here
www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dci/oracle for a link to the latest Comprehensive Rules document.
3. Check that the question hasn't been asked before by using TMD's
Search Function. Uncheck all boxes (the Check All box can also uncheck all boxes) and then check the box for the Rules Forum. If the card on which you're searching for information doesn't bring up an answer, try again with similar cards, if there are any.
This is the
BEST way for you to
LEARN the rules/ruling and think it through yourself and retain that knowledge, rather than just getting the "correct" answer.
If you still have questions or aren't sure, then the next step would be to post your question here.
PLEASE do the following when asking questions:
- Quote the
ORACLE card text if you have questions; it's especially good to post the entire text instead of saying "relevant text" because the latter eliminates context and may remove text that was, in fact, relevant in the first place.
- quote the sections of the rules document that you aren't clear on.
If everyone does this, not only will they get the "correct" answer, but you will get more detailed explanations and you will understand where the correct answer comes from, not just get the correct answer.
