Notes and Rules Information for Karn, the Great Creator:
- Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]." Some keyword abilities are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text, such as equip. Triggered abilities (starting with "when," "whenever," or "at") are unaffected by Karn. (2019-05-03)
- Karn's first ability affects only artifacts on the battlefield. Activated abilities that work in other zones can still be activated. (2019-05-03)
- A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn't matter how long the permanent has been a creature. (2019-05-03)
- If a permanent has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0. (2019-05-03)
- Karn's last ability can't get a face-down card in exile, even if you know it's an artifact card. (2019-05-03)
- In a casual game, a card you choose from outside the game comes from your personal collection. In a tournament event, a card you choose from outside the game must come from your sideboard. You may look at your sideboard at any time. (2019-05-03)
