Split second (As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.)
Untap target permanent and gain control of it until end of turn. It gains haste until end of turn.
rulings
- 2021-03-19Split second doesn't stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.
- 2021-03-19Players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.
- 2021-03-19After a spell with split second resolves (or otherwise leaves the stack), players may again cast spells and activate abilities before the next object on the stack resolves.
- 2021-03-19If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can't be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.
- 2021-03-19Casting a spell with split second won't affect spells and abilities that are already on the stack.
- 2021-03-19Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.
