Three official rulings apply to Breeches, Eager Pillager, newest first.
- If you somehow control two or more Breeches, Eager Pillager, track which modes have been chosen each turn for each one's ability separately.
- If you can't legally choose a mode because all three have been chosen that turn, that instance of the ability is removed from the stack with no effect.
- You pay all costs and follow all normal timing rules for cards played this way. For example, if the exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty.
