Oath of Lieges 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
At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player chooses target player who controls more lands than they do and is their opponent. The first player may search their library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield, then shuffle.
How it works : Oath of Lieges
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The ability can only target an opponent of the current player.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
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.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
Shuffling the library is part of the optional effect. The player only shuffles if they chose to search.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
The land card enters under the current player's control.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
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.
No other card is named in this ruling.
