What it does

You may exert this creature as it attacks. When you do, it can't be blocked this turn and you scry 1. (An exerted creature won't untap during your next untap step. To scry 1, look at the top card of your library. You may put that card on the bottom.)

Rulings

4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2023-10-13

    You may exert Clockwork Droid only as you attack with it. You can't do so later in combat, and creatures put onto the battlefield attacking can't be exerted. The ability that triggers on exerting it will resolve before blockers are declared.

  • 2023-10-13

    If an exerted creature is already untapped during your next untap step (most likely because it had vigilance or an effect untapped it), exert's effect preventing it from untapping expires without having done anything.

  • 2023-10-13

    You can't exert a creature unless an effect allows you to do so. Similar effects that "tap and freeze" a creature don't exert that creature.

  • 2023-10-13

    If you gain control of another player's creature until end of turn and exert it, and then that player regains control of it, it will untap during that player's untap step.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of Clockwork Droid

2 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly — a printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall genuinely publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Clockwork Droid — a name search across every version, for the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only — no individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
