How it works : Kefnet the Mindful

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Once Kefnet has attacked or blocked, it will remain in combat even if the number of cards in your hand becomes six or fewer.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    While resolving Kefnet's activated ability, you don't choose which land to return to its owner's hand (or whether you'll return one at all) until you see the card you draw.
