There has been a rule change to nullify the interaction of Oblivion Ring, etc. into the lamer no tricks abilities of Banishing Light, etc. correct? Or do the cards still work as they are printed?
Oracle, the firewall hates it, don't want to wait till I get home...
Banishing Light’s ability causes a zone change with a duration,a new style of ability that’s somewhat reminiscent of older cards like Oblivion Ring. However, unlike Oblivion Ring,cards like Banishing Light have a single ability that creates two one-shot effects: one that exiles the permanent when the ability resolves,and another that returns the exiled card to the battlefield immediately after Banishing Light leaves the battlefield. If Banishing Light leaves the battlefield before its enters-the-battlefield ability resolves, the target nonland permanent won’t be exiled.
Oblivion Ring tricks still work.
