Watery Grave

Rulings

From the Super Slam release notes
  • Gallow’s second instant-activated ability requires its controller to tap Gallow and discard a card with watery grave for its activation cost. Discard a card to pay for a cost does not trigger the watery grave.
  • When Gallow’s second instant-activated ability resolves, you generate a continuous effect that until end of turn would prevent any effect controlled by your opponent that would trigger if an attack hits, including on-hit and on-damage effects. It does not prevent effects from triggering if the attack deals damage in other ways (in steps other than the damage step of combat), nor does it prevent effects that check if attacks previously hit (eg. wager).
  • If an effect would trigger, but is prevented by this, it still counts towards the number of times it would trigger. For effects that say “The next time” or “The first time” that are prevented from triggering, they won’t trigger again because their conditions were already satisfied.

Keyword notes

Watery Grave - When this is put into your graveyard from the arena, turn it face-down.
  • Watery Grave is an ability keyword.
  • Watery Grave is a trigger that ONLY triggers if the card is put from the arena into the graveyard, excluding when it is a non-permanent defending card on the combat chain. It also does not trigger if it is put into the graveyard by other means (e.g. discarded from your hand, destroyed from the top of the deck, put into the graveyard from your deck).
  • When Watery Grave’s triggered effect resolves, you must turn that card with watery grave face-down in your graveyard.
  • Similar to face-down cards in the banish zone, you can look at face-down cards in your graveyard. Opponents cannot look at face-down cards in your graveyard.
  • Cards and effects that interact with cards in the graveyard cannot interact with face-down cards in the graveyard unless the effect specifies that it affects face-down cards. For example, if a card requires you to banish 3 random cards from your graveyard as an additional cost, face-down banished cards are unable to be banished from your graveyard this way to pay for the cost.
