Vedalken Shackles 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
You may choose not to untap this artifact during your untap step.,
: Gain control of target creature with power less than or equal to the number of Islands you control for as long as this artifact remains tapped.
How it works : Vedalken Shackles
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The creature’s power and the number of Islands you control matter only when the ability is activated and when it resolves. After that, only the fact that Vedalken Shackles remains tapped matters. If the creature stops being a creature, you’ll keep control of it.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If Vedalken Shackles becomes untapped before its ability resolves, you won’t gain control of the creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If Vedalken Shackles leaves the battlefield, it’s no longer tapped, so the control-changing effect ends.
No other card is named in this ruling.
