惩戒火焰

Text:

惩戒火焰对目标生物或牌手造成2点伤害。
每当任一对手获得生命时，你可以支付。 若你如此作，则将惩戒火焰从你的坟墓场移回你手上。

Rulings:

• 10/1/2009 Punishing Fire’s triggered ability triggers only if it’s already in your graveyard at the time an opponent gains life. For example, you can cast it in response to a spell or ability that will cause an opponent to gain life. In that case, Punishing Fire will resolve first, so it will be in the graveyard by the time the opponent gains life. However, if you wait until an opponent actually gains life and then cast Punishing Fire, you won’t be able to return it to your hand at that time.
• 10/1/2009 You choose whether to pay <img src="/Handlers/Image.ashx?size=small&amp;name=R&amp;type=symbol" alt="Red" align="absbottom" /> as the triggered ability resolves.
• 10/1/2009 If Punishing Fire has left your graveyard by the time its triggered ability resolves, you may still pay <img src="/Handlers/Image.ashx?size=small&amp;name=R&amp;type=symbol" alt="Red" align="absbottom" />, but you won’t return it to your hand. This is true even if Punishing Fire has left your graveyard and returned to it by the time its triggered ability resolves.
