Rulings
- December 1, 2004 — The effects of Memnarch’s abilities don’t end at end of turn, and they don’t end when Memnarch leaves the battlefield. Both effects last until the affected permanent leaves the battlefield.
- December 1, 2004 — You can use the first ability on a nonartifact permanent, wait for the ability to resolve, and then use the second ability on that permanent.
