My cat's hair always finds its way to some dark corner of my body. Luckily never the eye.

@wotcmatt.bsky.social After resolving a madness trigger, if the exiled card wasn’t cast and was moved to the graveyard, can Mayhem still see it was discarded that turn? I looked at rule 400.7k but still not sure.

@wotcmatt.bsky.social If I may piggy back on this, I'd really like to know: I control Braids, Arisen Nightmare and have 2 opponents. One of them controls Alms Collector. If I sacrifice a permanent with Braids and none of them do, would Alms Collector apply since I'd draw 2 cards?

Thank you. The answer really threw me off so I had to make sure.

@wotcmatt.bsky.social to be sure would these rules change the answer?
107.3i
Normally, all instances of X on an object have the same value at any given time
608.2h
If an effect requires information from the game (such as the number of creatures on the battlefield), the answer is determined only once

Luckily, I asked him that some time ago: bsky.app/profile/r0b0...

Hi Nate! HBD! 🥳🎉

Hi @wotcmatt.bsky.social sorry to reanimate this, but any update?

@wotcmatt.bsky.social yes, the Mirror still has the Bear's text, but which text does the Bear have now? Does the Bear keep having Deadpool's text? Or is it updated to have the Mirror's text?

Hey @wotcmatt.bsky.social Were you able to discuss this with the rules team. It seems like Jess is also investigating the discrepancy between this and Arixmethes's ruling.

Haha I didn't know that tweet existed before I asked you. But Jess was not very sure back then and didn't give a solid answer anyway. I also like your answer more and it certainly feels righter.

Matt, a tweet from Jess Dunks (x.com/Dunkatog/sta...) seems to contradict this answer. But Jess wasn't very sure back then. Did you both talk it out and arrive at this answer today? And if not, could you get a confirmation from him?

Yes, many players still don't know how these effects interact with X costs.
