If I scored a holding point on a battlefield this turn, then left it, and my opponent took control of it, can I score again and trigger conquer effects if I take it back this same turn?

Answer

Ruling: You cannot score a second point or trigger conquer effects on a battlefield where you already scored a holding point this turn. You can gain control of it, but not conquer it.

Sequence:

  • You score a holding point on a battlefield
  • You leave the battlefield and opponent takes control
  • You move back to the battlefield
  • You gain control but do not score or conquer

Nuances:

  • You can only score 1 point per battlefield per turn
  • Conquering is attached to scoring, so no scoring means no conquering
  • Gaining control and conquering are different mechanics
