Title: Multiplayer question
Post by: Spencer Addington on December 27, 2013, 12:35:56 AM
This is a 3 player game. If I deal lethal damage to an opponent in response to them casting a {supreme verdict}, does the spell resolve?

Player a has 3 life,
Player b has 20 creatures,
Player c is waiting patiently for a chance to win.

Player a casts {supreme verdict},
In response player b casts {lightning strike} targeting player a.
Lighting strike resolves and I believe all spells belonging to player a are exiled and do not resolve.

Would like confirmation from a mod though.

Glad someone understood my nonsensicle question :)

Everything they own leaves the game the moment they lose.

The ruling in question:

800.4a When a player leaves the game, all objects (see rule 109) owned by that player leave the game and any effects which give that player control of any objects or players end. Then, if that player controlled any objects on the stack not represented by cards, those objects 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.
