*'''701.16.''' Shuffle | |||
**'''701.16a''' To shuffle a [[library]] or a face-down [[pile]] of cards, [[random]]ize the cards within it so that no player knows their order. | |||
**'''701.16b''' Some [[effect]]s cause a [[player]] to [[search]] a [[library]] for a card or cards, shuffle that library, then put the found card or cards in a certain position in that library. Even though the found card or cards never leave that library, they aren’t included in the shuffle. Rather, all the cards in that library except those are shuffled. [[Abilities]] that trigger when a library is shuffled will still trigger. | |||
**'''701.16c''' If an effect would cause a player to shuffle one or more specific objects into a library, but none of those objects are in the [[zone]] they’re expected to be in, that library isn’t shuffled. | |||
***'''Example:''' <c>Guile</c> says, in part, "When Guile is put into a [[graveyard]] from anywhere, shuffle it into its owner’s library." It’s put into a graveyard and its ability triggers, then a player [[exile]]s it from that graveyard in response. When the ability resolves, nothing happens. | |||
**'''701.16d''' If an effect would cause a player to shuffle one or more specific objects into a library, and a [[replacement effect|replacement]] or [[prevention Effect|prevention]] effect causes all such objects to be moved to another zone instead, that library isn’t shuffled. | |||
***'''Example:''' <c>Black Sun’s Zenith</c> says, in part, "Shuffle Black Sun’s Zenith into its owner’s library." Black Sun’s Zenith is in a graveyard, has gained [[flashback]] (due to <c>Recoup</c>, perhaps), and is [[cast]] from that graveyard. Black Sun’s Zenith will be exiled, and its owner’s library won’t be shuffled. | |||
**'''701.16e''' If an effect would cause a player to shuffle a set of objects into a library, that library is shuffled even if there are no objects in that set. | |||
***'''Example:''' <c>Loaming Shaman</c> says "When Loaming Shaman enters the [[battlefield]], target player shuffles any number of target cards from his or her graveyard into his or her library." It enters the battlefield, its ability triggers, and no cards are targeted. When the ability resolves, the targeted player will still have to shuffle his or her library. | |||
**'''701.16f''' If an effect causes a player to shuffle a library containing zero or one cards, abilities that trigger when a library is shuffled will still trigger. | |||
**'''701.16g''' If two or more effects cause a library to be shuffled multiple times simultaneously, abilities that trigger when that library is shuffled will trigger that many times. | |||
