Alter Reality

Using Alter Reality Timing

New 13 Oct 2016 Asked by abominable-joeman 22 Comments

Hi Mr. Rosewater, I have a dukes question, can I use Alter Reality to change the text of Force of Will so that they have to exile a different color card in order to counter if/keep them from casting it, or by the time I can do that is it too late?


Too late.

Crimson Kobolds Errata

New 19 Oct 2014 Asked by wimpina42-blog-blog-blog 24 Comments

If I remember correctly, several R&D members said that you won't do functional errata anymore. Then why did you errata Crimson Kobolds to have a color indicator instead of an ability? That's clearly a functional errata, as Crimson Kobolds interacts diffrently with Muraganda Petroglyphs and Alter Reality than the original wording.


We didn’t change the card. We changed how the color identity as a whole worked. For example, when we changed how life link worked all cards with lifeline now work differently. That’s different that putting functional errata on a card.

Silver-Bordered Rule

New 25 Sep 2011 Asked by oneiromantis 5 Comments

I was checking the Gatherer comments on Ass Whuppin' and I saw this: "This might be a silly question, but can you use cards like Alter Reality to change silver to say... black?". That was a very intersted question. Can you?


There is one meta silver-bordered rule. It can never interact with the black-bordered world. Think of them as parallel universes with something called the void in between. (Okay, geeky “Doctor Who” reference out of the way.)
