Brought Back is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
Choose up to two target permanent cards in your graveyard that were put there from the battlefield this turn. Return them to the battlefield tapped.
How it works : Brought Back
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
A permanent card is an artifact, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Permanent spells that were countered earlier in the turn never entered the battlefield, so they won't be legal targets for Brought Back.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If you return an Aura this way, you choose what the Aura will enchant just before it enters, but you can't choose any permanent cards that will enter at the same time as that Aura. An Aura returning to the battlefield this way doesn't target the player or permanent it will enchant, so permanents or players with hexproof may be chosen; however, the chosen recipient must be able to legally be enchanted by the Aura, so a player or permanent with protection from one of the Aura's qualities can't be chosen this way. If there's nothing legal for the Aura to enchant, it stays in the graveyard.
No other card is named in this ruling.
