Rules for this card

  • Read Ahead Rule 702.155 Glossary

    A keyword ability found on some Sagas that allows their controller to choose which chapter it starts on. See rule 702.155, “Read Ahead.”

Rulings (2)

  • Wizards of the Coast
    As a Saga with read ahead enters the battlefield, its controller chooses a number from one to that Saga's greatest chapter number. The Saga enters the battlefield with the chosen number of lore counters. Neither choosing the number nor putting the counters on the Saga use the stack, and neither can be responded to.
  • Wizards of the Coast
    In a Two-Headed Giant game, the first chapter ability deals to damage to each player on the opposing team, reducing that team's life total by 4.
