Dream-Thief's Bandana rulings

  • You may look at and play cards exiled face down with Dream-Thief's Bandana's first ability (and spend mana of any type to do so) even if Dream-Thief's Bandana and/or the equipped creature leaves the battlefield. If another player gains control of Dream-Thief's Bandana and/or the equipped creature, that player can't look at or play cards already exiled with Dream-Thief's Bandana, and you still can.

  • You pay all costs and follow all normal timing rules for cards played from exile with Dream-Thief's Bandana's first ability. For example, if the exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty.

  • Playing an exiled card causes it to leave exile. You can't play it multiple times.

  • If you leave the game, any remaining face-down exiled cards remain exiled face down indefinitely. No player may look at them.

Dream-Thief's Bandana keyword rules

Equip Rule 702.6

Equip is an activated ability of Equipment cards. “Equip [cost]” means “[Cost]: Attach this permanent to target creature you control. Activate only as a sorcery.”

For more information about Equipment, see rule , “Artifacts.”

Equip abilities may further restrict what creatures may be chosen as legal targets. Such restrictions usually appear in the form “Equip [quality]” or “Equip [quality] creature.” These equip abilities may legally target only a creature that’s controlled by the player activating the ability and that has the chosen quality. Additional restrictions for an equip ability don’t restrict what the Equipment may be attached to.

If a permanent has multiple equip abilities, any of its equip abilities may be activated.

“Equip planeswalker” is a variant of the equip ability. “Equip planeswalker [cost]” means “[Cost]: Attach this permanent to target planeswalker you control as though that planeswalker were a creature. Activate only as a sorcery.”
