In tournament time rules (5 turns or 5 minutes), if a player plays Time Warp during the extra turns, does it count against the 5-turn limit?

Answer

Ruling: Yes, extra turns from Time Warp count toward the 5-turn limit in tournament time rules. Once 5 total turns have been taken (regardless of who takes them), no additional turns occur.

Sequence:

  • When time is called, players get 5 turns or 5 minutes
  • If Time Warp is played on turn 4, that extra turn becomes turn 5
  • If Time Warp is played on turn 5, no extra turn is granted because the 5-turn limit has been reached

Nuances:

  • This can potentially be abused by control decks that can generate multiple Time Warps, allowing them to take consecutive turns and deny the opponent their remaining turns in the time extension
