Rulings
Official rulings from Wizards of the Coast (4).
- 2018-01-19To play a Magic subgame, all players start a new game, using their libraries as their decks. No other cards, tokens, emblems, or anything else from the main game are included in the subgame.
- 2018-01-19If a player has fewer than seven cards in their main-game library, they’ll lose the subgame as it begins, regardless of how many mulligans that player takes.
- 2018-01-19If the subgame is a draw, no player won the subgame, so damage dealt to any player in the main game will be doubled.
- 2018-01-19After the subgame ends, all players shuffle their cards from the subgame to reform their main-game libraries, and they return to the main game from the point they left off, with The Countdown Is at One finishing resolving.
