Gameplay

Instant

Choose three. You may choose the same mode more than once. • Until end of turn, target creature loses all abilities and has base power and toughness 1/1. • Target creature connives. (Draw a card, then discard a card. If you discarded a nonland card, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.) • Target player returns a creature card from their graveyard to their hand.

If no card is discarded, most likely because that player's hand is empty and an effect says they can't draw cards, the conniving creature does not receive a +1/+1 counter.

2022-04-29wotc

If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to connive but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still connives. If you discard a nonland card this way, you won't put a +1/+1 counter on anything. Abilities that trigger “when [that creature] connives” will trigger.

2022-04-29wotc

Once an ability that causes a creature to connive begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Notably, opponents can't try to remove the conniving creature after you discard a nonland card but before it receives a counter.
