Rulings

  • September 19, 2025 — Though JJJ suspects only one creature when he enters, there is generally no limit to the number of creatures that can be suspected. Suspecting a new creature doesn't cause other creatures to stop being suspected.
  • September 19, 2025 — If a suspected creature loses all abilities, it will lose menace and "This creature can't block," but it won't stop being suspected.
  • September 19, 2025 — If a creature is already suspected, suspecting it again won't have any effect.
  • September 19, 2025 — When an effect suspects a creature, it becomes suspected. It gains menace and "This creature can't block" for as long as it's suspected. It stays suspected until it leaves the battlefield or another effect causes it to no longer be suspected.
  • September 19, 2025 — Being suspected isn't a copiable value. If a permanent becomes a copy of a suspected creature, it won't be suspected.
