Captivating Glance keyword rules

Enchant Rule 702.5

Enchant is a static ability, written “Enchant [object or player].” The enchant ability restricts what an Aura spell can target and what an Aura can enchant.

For more information about Auras, see rule , “Enchantments.”

If an Aura has multiple instances of enchant, all of them apply. The Aura’s target must follow the restrictions from all the instances of enchant. The Aura can enchant only objects or players that match all of its enchant abilities.

Auras that can enchant a player can target and be attached to players. Such Auras can’t target permanents and can’t be attached to permanents.

Clash Rule 701.23

To clash, a player reveals the top card of their library. That player may then put that card on the bottom of their library.

“Clash with an opponent” means “Choose an opponent. You and that opponent each clash.”

Each clashing player reveals the top card of their library at the same time. Then those players decide in APNAP order (see rule ) where to put those cards, then those cards move at the same time.

A player wins a clash if that player revealed a card with a higher mana value than all other cards revealed in that clash.
