- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If Cartouche of Strength leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the creature it last enchanted will fight the target creature if it's still on the battlefield at that time. However, it won't have +1/+1 from Cartouche of Strength anymore.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
Cartouche is an enchantment subtype with no special meaning. Other cards may care about which enchantments are Cartouches.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
If the target creature becomes an illegal target before a Cartouche spell resolves, the spell doesn't resolve. It doesn't enter the battlefield.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
Each Cartouche is an Aura with "Enchant creature you control." If another player gains control of either the Cartouche or the enchanted creature (but not both), then the Cartouche will be enchanting an illegal permanent and be put into its owner's graveyard as a state-based action.
No other card is named in this ruling.
