Fateseal is a keyword action similar to scry. The only difference between them is that when you scry, you affect your own library, and when you fateseal, you affect an opponent's library.
History
Fateseal was introduced in Future Sight, but was based on the mechanic of the Mirage card Sealed Fate. It has only been printed on two cards so far, Mesmeric Sliver and Spin into Myth. Fateseal is considered to be a very un-fun mechanic by R&D, and is not expected to show up again any time soon. [1]
"Fateseal" became the most common nickname for the +2 ability of the Planeswalker, Jace the Mind Sculptor, as its text is functionally the same as "Fateseal 1." (The actual text reads, "Look at the top card of target player's library. You may put that card on the bottom of that player's library.")
Rules
Rulings
- The fateseal action doesn't have a target. You choose which opponent to affect as part of performing the action.
