Title: Multiplayer clarification needed
Post by: Double-O-Scotch on July 03, 2013, 06:41:07 PM
In multiplayer, If a player has only 1 life left, and that player has a spell on the stack and say there is 4 players total, if that players gets lightning bolted (and of course, loses the game) what happens to all their permanents and, more importantly, their spell on the stack?

Everything that player owns is removed from the game. This includes effects on the stack, and permanents under another player's control.

800.4. Unlike two-player games, multiplayer games can continue after one or more players have left the game.

800.4a When a player leaves the game, all objects (see rule 109) owned by that player leave the game, any effects which give that player control of any objects or players end, and all spells and abilities controlled by that player on the stack cease to exist. Then, if there are any objects still controlled by that player, those objects are exiled. This is not a state-based action. It happens as soon as the player leaves the game. If the player who left the game had priority at the time he or she left, priority passes to the next player in turn order who's still in the game.
