Rulings
  • 2004-10-04 Because the "search" requires you to find a card with certain characteristics, you don't have to find the card if you don't want to.
  • 2004-10-04 The land card enters under the current player's control.
  • 2008-08-01 Shuffling the library is part of the optional effect. The player only shuffles if they chose to search.
  • 2009-10-01 The ability can only target an opponent of the current player.
  • 2009-10-01 The targeted player controlling more lands than the current player is a part of the targeting requirement. A player can't be targeted by this ability unless it's true, and the ability doesn't resolve if it's no longer true at that time.
