Official rulings

Six official rulings apply to Red Death, Shipwrecker, newest first.

• 2024-03-08 Attacking with a goaded creature doesn’t cause it to stop being goaded. If there is an additional combat phase that turn, or if another player gains control of it before it stops being goaded, it must attack again if able.
• 2024-03-08 Being goaded isn’t an ability the creature has. Once it’s been goaded, it must attack as detailed above even if it loses all abilities.
• 2024-03-08 If the creature doesn’t meet any of the above exceptions and can attack, it must attack a player other than the controller of the spell or ability that goaded it if able. If the creature can’t attack any of those players but could otherwise attack, it must attack a planeswalker an opponent controls, a battle an opponent protects, or the player that goaded it.
• 2024-03-08 If the target creature is an illegal target as Red Death’s ability tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects happen. You won’t add any mana, and the creature’s controller won’t draw a card.
• 2024-03-08 If, during a player’s declare attackers step, a creature that player controls that’s been goaded is tapped, is affected by a spell or ability that says it can’t attack, or hasn’t been under that player’s control continuously since the turn began (and doesn’t have haste), then it doesn’t attack. If there’s a cost associated with having a creature attack a player, its controller isn’t forced to pay that cost, so it doesn’t have to attack that player.
• 2024-03-08 Red Death’s ability isn’t a mana ability even though it causes you to add mana. It uses the stack and can be responded to.
