Re: Ixalan Policy Updates.
A quick gatherer search for card text "opponent may" brought back 31 cards, nothing notable. Searching for "controller may" brought back 43 cards, including Ghost Quarter and Path to Exile. That number also includes the reminder text for Cipher, so really 30 cards; not a whole lot of affected cards.
Interesting that "controller may" covers all the 'chain of' cards, looking forward to aggressively asking if my opponent will choose the option of paying :r::r: to copy my Chain Lightning. Are you? ARE YOU? I MUST KNOW!

As long as they've got two cards in hand, they could ape-chain you!

How hard is it for Elves to generate 2 Red Mana via DRS? Or any decks with DRS in play for that matter?
Also, cards with "each opponent may," notably Veteran Explorer.
Re: Ixalan Policy Updates.
Does this rule interact with Tabernacle? the losses resulting from "not choosing fast enough" because you drew a card or some such, does that get turned into a "you take a penalty for drawing early" or does it remain a "You need to remember or get screwed" thing?
I've not lost to it before, but I've watched people throw games to that problem.

I answered above, but as per the current wording of this, there is no interaction with Tabernacle.
