Official rulings

One official ruling applies to Space Marine Scout.

  • Space Marine Scout's triggered ability has an "intervening if clause," which means that it checks to see whether or not an opponent controls more lands than you both when it triggers and when it resolves. If it isn't true both times, you won't search your library for a Plains card.
