Damping Engine 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
A player who controls more permanents than each other player can't play lands or cast artifact, creature, or enchantment spells. That player may sacrifice a permanent of their choice for that player to ignore this effect until end of turn.
How it works : Damping Engine
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
A player affected by this card can sacrifice a permanent any time they could cast an instant. This is a special action that doesn’t use the stack and can’t be responded to.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
A player can only sacrifice a permanent to end this effect if they have more permanents than any other player, and they haven’t already sacrificed a permanent to end the effect this turn. The ability to sacrifice a creature is granted by the same effect that is being ended.
No other card is named in this ruling.
