🖋️ Curator's Notes

Exile target creature. If you don't control a Human, you lose life equal to that creature's toughness.

""I will preserve human life at all costs. I will stand alone against behemoths before I let them touch my city. I will hold the wall." —Oath of the Coppercoats"

Use the exiled creature’s toughness as it last existed on the battlefield to determine how much life you lose.

2020-04-17

Whether you control a Human is checked only after exiling the target creature. If that creature had exiled a Human you controlled until that creature left the battlefield, that Human will return to the battlefield in time to be counted.
