Description
The Ring Tempts You shows the influence of the One Ring on those who possess it.
Being Tempted
As the Ring tempts you, you get an emblem named The Ring if you don't have one. Then, your emblem gains its next ability and you choose a creature you control to become or remain your Ring-bearer.
The Ring gains the following effects, in order:
- Your Ring-bearer is legendary and can't be blocked by creatures with greater power (invisibility granted by the ring).
- Whenever your Ring-bearer attacks, draw a card, then discard a card (desire to possess the ring).
- Whenever your Ring-bearer becomes blocked by a creature, that creature's controller sacrifices it at the end of combat (death of previous ring-bearers)
- Whenever your Ring-bearer deals combat damage to a player, each opponent loses 3 life (the lasting effects of the ring).
Rules
Rulings
