Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Halfling Peasant

Flash When Samwise enters, choose up to one target permanent card in your graveyard that was put there from the battlefield this turn. Return it to your hand. Then the Ring tempts you.

"You've hurt my master, you brute, and you'll pay for it."

Some spells and abilities that cause the Ring to tempt you may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. The Ring won't tempt you.

2023-06-16wotc

The Ring can tempt you even if you don't control a creature. In this case, abilities that trigger "whenever the Ring tempts you" will still trigger.

2023-06-16wotc

The Ring gains its abilities in order from top to bottom. Once it gains an ability, it has that ability for the rest of the game.
