Rule with an Even Hand

Zero is even, so you can attack with zero creatures. One, however, is odd.

A conspiracy’s static and triggered abilities function as long as that conspiracy is face up in the command zone.

To double a creature’s power, that creature gets +X/+0, where X is that creature’s power as Rule with an Even Hand’s last ability resolves.

You don’t have to play with any conspiracy you draft. However, you have only one opportunity to put conspiracies into the command zone, as the game begins. You can’t put conspiracies into the command zone after this point.

For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.

Conspiracies are colorless, have no mana cost, and can’t be cast as spells.

Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as {T} and {W}. These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.

You can look at any player’s face-up conspiracies at any time. You’ll also know how many face-down conspiracies a player has in the command zone, although you won’t know what they are.
