Official rulings

Six official rulings apply to Ghouls' Night Out, newest first.

  • If any creature cards put onto the battlefield this way become permanents that aren't creatures because of another effect, those permanents won't be Zombies, but they will gain decayed.
  • Decayed does not create any attacking requirements. You may choose not to attack with a creature that has decayed.
  • Decayed does not grant haste. Creatures with decayed that enter the battlefield during your turn may not attack until your next turn.
  • Decayed represents a static ability and a triggered ability. "Decayed" means "This creature can't block" and "When this creature attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat."
  • The creatures will enter the battlefield simultaneously. They will see each other enter for the purposes of triggered abilities.
  • Once a creature with decayed attacks, it will be sacrificed at end of combat, even if it no longer has decayed at that time.
