**'''101.1.''' Whenever a card's text directly contradicts these rules, the card takes precedence. The card overrides only the rule that applies to that specific situation. The only exception is that a player can ''[[concede]]'' the game at any time (see rule 104.3a).

**'''101.2.''' When a rule or effect allows or directs something to happen, and another effect states that it can't happen, the "can't" effect takes precedence.<blockquote>'''''Example:''' If one effect reads "You may play an additional land this turn" and another reads "You can't play land cards this turn," the effect that precludes you from playing lands wins.''</blockquote>

**'''101.4.''' If multiple players would make choices and/or take actions at the same time, the ''active player'' (the player whose turn it is) makes any choices required, then the next player in turn order (usually the player seated to the active player's left) makes any choices required, followed by the remaining nonactive players in turn order. Then the actions happen simultaneously. This rule is often referred to as the "Active Player, Nonactive Player ([[APNAP]]) order" rule.<blockquote>'''''Example:''' A card reads "Each player sacrifices a creature." First, the active player chooses a creature he or she controls. Then each of the nonactive players chooses a creature he or she controls. Then all creatures are sacrificed simultaneously.''</blockquote>
