| **'''701.15a''' To search for a card in a [[zone]], look at all cards in that zone (even if it’s a hidden zone) and find a card that matches the given description.
| | |
| **'''701.15b''' If a [[player]] is searching a hidden zone for cards with a stated quality, such as a card with a certain [[card type]] or [[color]], that player isn’t required to find some or all of those cards even if they’re present in that zone.{{CR Example|<c>Splinter</c> says "[[Exile]] target [[artifact]]. Search its [[controller]]’s [[graveyard]], [[hand]], and [[library]] for all cards with the same name as that artifact and exile them. That player then [[shuffle]]s his or her library." A player [[cast]]s Splinter targeting <c>Howling Mine</c> (an artifact). Howling Mine’s controller has another Howling Mine in her graveyard and two more in her library. Splinter’s controller must find the Howling Mine in the graveyard, but may choose to find zero, one, or two of the Howling Mines in the library.}}
| |
| **'''701.15c''' If a player is instructed to search a hidden zone for cards that match an undefined quality, that player may still search that zone but can't find any cards.{{CR Example|<c>Lobotomy</c> says "Target player reveals his or her hand, then you choose a card other than a basic land card from it. Search that player's graveyard, hand, and library for all cards with the same name as the chosen card and exile them. Then that player shuffles his or her library." If the target player has no cards in his or her hand when Lobotomy resolves, the player who cast Lobotomy searches the specified zones but doesn't exile any cards.}}
| |
| **'''701.15d''' If a player is searching a hidden zone simply for a quantity of cards, such as "a card" or "three cards," that player must find that many cards (or as many as possible, if the zone doesn’t contain enough cards).
| |
| **'''701.15e''' If the effect that contains the search instruction doesn’t also contain instructions to reveal the found card(s), then they’re not revealed.
| |
| **'''701.15f''' If searching a zone is replaced with searching a portion of that zone, any other instructions that refer to searching the zone still apply. Any abilities that trigger on a library being searched will trigger.

| {{CR Example|<c>Aven Mindcensor</c> says, in part, "If an opponent would search a library, that player searches the top four cards of that library instead." <c>Veteran Explorer</c> says "When Veteran Explorer dies, each player may search his or her library for up to two basic land cards and put them onto the battlefield. Then each player who searched his or her library this way shuffles it." An opponent who searched the top four cards of his or her library because of Veteran Explorer's ability would shuffle the entire library.}}
