Rulings & errata

›Origins cards that instruct players to play cards from their deck, like Promising Future and Blind Fury, received errata to banish those cards before playing them. Will Spiritforged cards with similar abilities receive similar errata?

Yes! This is mostly a bookkeeping thing—banishing the card ensures that the game has a place to put the card until it’s actually played, and a place to send the card back to if it can’t be played for whatever reason. 99% of the time, these cards work the same with or without this errata, but we need to cover those weird corner cases. This impacts 3 Spiritforged cards, plus 1 Origins card that got past us last time.

Rek’Sai, Swarm Queen (revised text)

When I attack, you may reveal the top 2 cards of your Main Deck. You may banish one, then play it. If it is a unit, you may play it here. Recycle the rest.

Void Burrower (revised text)

When you conquer, you may exhaust me to reveal the top 2 cards of your Main Deck. You may banish one, then play it. Recycle the rest.

Void Rush (revised text)

Reveal the top 2 cards of your Main Deck. You may banish one, then play it, reducing its cost by [2]. Draw any you didn't banish.

Reinforce (revised text)

Look at the top 5 cards of your Main Deck. You may banish a unit from among them, then play it, reducing its cost by [5]. Recycle the remaining cards.
