Mischievous Chimera rulings

  • You scry 1 just once, no matter how many opponents are dealt damage.

  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, each opposing team loses 2 life and you scry 1.

  • An ability that triggers when you cast a spell resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

  • This ability triggers only on your very first spell during an opponent’s turn, not the first spell after the card is on the battlefield. If you cast a spell before it’s on the battlefield (including if you cast this card somehow during an opponent’s turn), the ability won’t trigger.

  • If you have more than one opponent, this ability can trigger once during each of those opponents’ turns.

  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, this ability triggers no more than once during each opposing team’s turn.

Mischievous Chimera keyword rules

Scry Rule 701.18

To “scry N” means to look at the top N cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom of your library in any order and the rest on top of your library in any order.

If a player is instructed to scry 0, no scry event occurs. Abilities that trigger whenever a player scries won’t trigger.

If multiple players scry at once, each of those players looks at the top cards of their library at the same time. Those players decide in APNAP order (see rule ) where to put those cards, then those cards move at the same time.

An ability that triggers whenever a player scries triggers after the process described in rule is complete, even if some or all of those actions were impossible.

Flying Rule 702.9

Flying is an evasion ability.

A creature with flying can’t be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach. A creature with flying can block a creature with or without flying. (See rule , “Declare Blockers Step,” and rule , “Reach.”)

Multiple instances of flying on the same creature are redundant.
