Official rulings

One official ruling applies to Eardrum Rattler.

  • If the target creature's power changes to be greater than 2 before Eardrum Rattler's ability resolves, the ability does nothing because the target is no longer legal. However, once the ability has resolved, that creature won't be able to be blocked even if its power increases above 2.
