I cast and resolved [[Restoration Seminar]] in Arena earlier and then exiled it from my graveyard to collect evidence for [[Deadly Cover-Up]] the next turn and I don't fully understand how it got there. It resolved during the first casting and my permanent made it back to the battlefield. At the beginning of my next turn, my opponent exiled my Restoration Seminar target from my graveyard with [[Ghost Vacuum]] in response to the second casting and it fizzled. I go on to cast Cover-Up and Restoration Seminar is at the top of my graveyard. I thought it was weird, so I exiled it to collect evidence for science since I wasn't running artifact removal and they could block every future casting. The paradigm symbol on the left of my screen disappeared at some point before Cover-Up resolved, but I can't say if it was already gone before I casted Cover-Up or not and I didn't get any more triggers to cast Restoration Seminar for the rest of the game.

My understanding is that the card was permanently exiled after resolving and only copies are cast on future turns. Am I missing something or did the game glitch?

Was checking combos for my preston the vanisher deck and found that the combo involving Fiend Hunter and Charming Prince goes like this:

• Cast Charming Prince by paying.
• 2 When Charming Prince enters the battlefield, it triggers, exiling Fiend Hunter until the next end step.
• 3 When Fiend Hunter leaves the battlefield, its second ability triggers, returning all cards exiled with it to the battlefield under their owner's control.
• 4 At the beginning of your end step, Charming Prince triggers, returning Fiend Hunter from exile to the battlefield.
• 5 When Fiend Hunter enters the battlefield, its first ability and Preston trigger.
• 6 Resolve the Fiend Hunter trigger, exiling Charming Prince.
• 7 Resolve the Preston trigger, creating a copy of Fiend Hunter that is a 0/1 Illusion.
• 8 When the token Fiend Hunter enters the battlefield, its first ability triggers, exiling the nontoken Fiend Hunter until the token Fiend Hunter leaves the battlefield.
• 9 When the nontoken Fiend Hunter leaves the battlefield, its second ability triggers, returning Charming Prince from exile to the battlefield.
• 10 When Charming Prince enters the battlefield, it and Preston trigger, with Charming Prince targeting the Fiend Hunter token.
• 11 Resolve the Preston trigger, creating a token copy of Charming Prince that is a 0/1 Illusion.
• 12 When the token Charming Prince enters the battlefield, it triggers, exiling the Fiend Hunter token.
• 13 When the token Fiend Hunter leaves the battlefield, its second ability triggers, returning the nontoken Fiend Hunter from exile to the battlefield.
• 14 Repeat from step 5.

My question is, cant i use the charming prince trigger from step 10 to simply choose one of the other etb options? It would be nifty to be able to gain infinite life or scry my whole deck, considering that it is the Charming prince copy that targets the Fiend Hunter token to restart the combo. Thanks in advance!

If i cast a clone creature (eg. [[Phyrexian metamorph]] ) with the intention of copying a creature with affinity ( let's say [[thought monitor]] ) will the clone also be discounted?

Edit: thanks everyone. Guess I'll have to pay

I also have the deck boxes to match, just one pictured, the sleeves (not pictured) They are beautiful.

If your LGs ordered them, they should come in soon. Tifa binder is up on GameStop if anyone can’t locate one elsewhere.

Title says it but I’ve wanted to upgrade my precon with only in-universe cards

What would you cut? And what would you add?

I am trying with all my might to find this small artist I bought a food token from when I was at Fan Expo Boston.

She was making proxy tokens and the one I got was a food token that was a Paoupou fruit from Kingdom Hearts.

The direct artwork on it was the fruit on the beach with water washing up a bit around it.

I misplaced it on accident and I've been bugging out about it because i wanted to buy more but now I don't remember the artist.

Edit to add: i found her. Not before a bunch of you blew up my messages offering commissions when I didnt ask 😭

To boldly Clue where many have Clued before!
I’m getting back into the rhythm of these, and while I may not do this nearly as often, we have a very strong opening set of reveals, so let’s not waste any time and get to them!
