I'm really looking more for a rules copy/paste here, I can't seem to find it =/
So my question is, when a creature with an asterisk for Power/Toughness is in any other Zone except for the battlefield, (I.E. Graveyard, Hand, Deck) does the creature still have a Power/Toughness? If so, how does one read it? For specifics, let's use {Lord of Extinction} and {Consuming Aberation}.
I hope this is explanitory enough, I'm not very good at portraying my thoughts properly sometimes, if you need any more info on what I mean just ask.
Nvm I seem to have found it. For some reason I remember reading somewhere that if a card is in my other Zone, you read the asterisks as numbers equivilant to how the card defines them. The Rulebook states something completely different. Ah well, no harm done, simply thought I was onto something.
Here's the ruling in case any are curious. This question is a little unnecessary now though:
208.2. Rather than a fixed number, some creature cards have power and/or toughness that includes a star (*).
208.2a. The card may have a characteristic-defining ability that sets its power and/or toughness according to some stated condition. (See rule 604.3.) Such an ability is worded "[This creature's] [power or toughness] is equal to..." or "[This creature's] power and toughness are each equal to..." This ability functions everywhere, even outside the game. If the ability needs to use a number that can't be determined, use 0 instead of that number.
EDIT: OH, MY... Wait, after reading this again, it is saying exactly what I thought. Holy crap. Am I reading this right? So even in the graveyard {Lord of Extinction} is a massive creature? Geezus... This is exceptional news...
RESOLVED
{Lord of Extinction} + {Varolz, the Scar-Striped} = I'm back and better than ever.
{Lord of Extinction} + {Morgue Burst} = BOOM
