JUDGE CALLS! THESE ARE PRACTICE JUDGE CALLS INVOLVING MAGIC ORIGINS 2015 MECHANICS. THEY ARE EXAMPLES OF THE KIND OF OFTEN SLIGHTLY CONFUSED QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT EXPECT TO HEAR FROM PLAYERS. AS WITH ACTUAL JUDGE CALLS, SOME INVESTIGATION WILL BE REQUIRED. AS WITH ACTUAL JUDGE CALLS, YOUR ANSWER WILL DEPEND UPON THE SPECIFIC DETAILS THE PLAYER PROVIDES.

DFC: Double-Faced Cards In Origins: Legendary creatures with an ability that causes them to exile and return to the battlefield transformed. Can I have two Jaces on the battlefield? A decklist reads “Jace.” What do you do? Can I Silkwrap Jace? Since manifesting Jace, Vryn’s Prodigy via Cloudform puts him on the battlefield face down, can I use his Loyalty abilities? I use Clever Impersonator to clone Jace, Telepath Unbound. What do I get? I use Artisan of Forms to copy Jace, Telepath Unbound. What do I get? FWIW: Players need to either use a checklist card or use opaque sleeves.

RENOWN Renown is a triggered ability that rewards your creatures for striking your enemy, granting them prestige in the form of one or more +1/+1 counters and, sometimes, another ability. If my creature has double strike, does it get Renowned twice? How much damage does my Honored Hierarch with double strike do? If my Honored Hierarch attacks Elspeth, Sun’s Champion and isn’t blocked, does it get renowned? I make a token of my renowned Honored Hierarch and attack with it: how much damage does my opponent take?

SPELL MASTERY Spell mastery is a new ability word that appears on some instants and sorceries that improve if there are two or more instant and/or sorcery cards in your graveyard. An ability word appears in italics and has no rules meaning. I have one instant in my graveyard. I cast Fiery Impulse. Do I get the bonus? Judge! My opponent cast Fiery Impulse and I took 2 damage but there were two instants in their graveyard. What do we do?

MENACE A creature with menace can't be blocked except by two or more creatures. My opponent’s creature can only be blocked by one creature but has gained menace. What are my legal blocks? My opponent is attacking with a Boggart Brute that has had Enlarge cast upon it. I only have one creature. What do I do?

PROWESS Prowess is a keyword that strengthens a creature whenever you cast a noncreature spell. I cast Giant Growth on my attacking Ringwarden Owl, but that is countered. How much damage do they take?

SCRY Scry N: Look at the top N cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom of your library and the rest on top in any order. I accidentally scried two. How do we handle this?
