Tuesday rules gotcha: Did you know Trample + Deathtouch only needs 1 damage per blocker? Deathtouch makes any damage lethal, so the rest tramples over. Block my 6/6 with five 5/5s? Cool, 1 damage kills each and 1 still hits you in the face.

Rules gotcha: deathtouch + trample = you only assign 1 damage per blocker. The rest tramples through. Throw a Rancor on your Nighthawk Scavenger and watch the table do a double take.

🔍 Rules Gotcha: Vincent, Vengeful Atoner's Chaos ability deals NON-combat damage. It won't trigger "combat damage" effects but WILL trigger "loses life" abilities!

Rules gotcha that still starts arguments: your commander DOES trigger "dies" abilities even if it goes back to the command zone. It hits the graveyard first, then you choose to move it. Changed in 2020 and people still get it wrong.
No offense to the commenter that tried to "um actually" us, but who is spreading this misinformation that you can't respond to cycling? It's an activated ability, not a special action. It uses the stack and players can respond!
