Will of the council — Starting with you, each player votes for sickness or psychosis. If sickness gets more votes, creatures your opponents control get -2/-2 until end of turn. If psychosis gets more votes or the vote is tied, each opponent discards two cards.
Official rulings
- No player votes until the spell or ability resolves. Any responses to that spell or ability must be made without knowing the outcome of the vote. (2014-05-29)
- You must vote for one of the available options. You can't abstain. (2014-05-29)
- The effect will be the same for all your opponents, no matter how they voted. (2014-05-29)
- Because the votes are cast in turn order, each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand. (2014-05-29)
- Players can't do anything after they finish voting but before the spell or ability that included the vote finishes resolving. (2014-05-29)
- The phrase "the vote is tied" refers only to when there is more than one choice that received the most votes. For example, if a 5-player vote from among three different choices ends 3 votes to 1 vote to 1 vote, the vote isn't tied. (2014-05-29)
