For Promising Future, when each player looks at the top 3 cards and banishes one, does the active player choose first (meaning the opponent sees what they banished before choosing their own)? And how do the cards resolve on the chain?

Ruling: The active player looks at their top 3 cards and banishes one first, then the next player does the same. Since banished cards are public information, the opponent sees what the active player banished before making their own choice. When playing the banished cards, the next player (opponent) plays their card first, then the active player plays theirs, so the active player's card resolves first.

Sequence:

• Active player looks at top 3 cards and banishes one
• Next player looks at top 3 cards and banishes one (knowing what active player banished)
• Next player plays their banished card
• Active player plays their banished card
• Active player's card resolves first (if both are spells creating a chain)

Nuances:

• If either or both players pick units, those units resolve immediately upon being played rather than going on the chain
• The play instruction allows non-reaction cards to be played after other cards, which normally wouldn't be chainable
• The public nature of banished cards may be an unintended consequence of the card's design
