Rulings
5 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2024-03-08
Finality counters aren’t keyword counters, and a finality counter doesn’t give any abilities to the permanent it’s on. If that permanent loses its abilities and then would go to a graveyard, it will still be exiled instead.
- 2024-03-08
If you somehow control Battle of Hoover Dam and no choice was made for it (perhaps because another permanent on the battlefield became a copy of it), it has neither of the two triggered abilities.
- 2024-03-08
Multiple finality counters on a single permanent are redundant.
- 2024-03-08
Finality counters work on any permanent, not only creatures. If a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into a graveyard from the battlefield, exile it instead.
- 2024-03-08
Finality counters don’t stop permanents from going to zones other than the graveyard from the battlefield. For example, if a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into its owner’s hand from the battlefield, it does so normally.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
