Official rulings

  1. If a spell or ability you control has one or more of its targets changed to a creature you control with a valiant ability, that ability will trigger if that creature hasn't yet been the target of a spell or ability you control this turn. (2024-07-26)
  2. Valiant abilities will resolve before the spell or ability that caused them to trigger. (2024-07-26)
  3. If you create a copy of a spell on the stack and target a creature you control with a valiant ability, that ability will trigger as long as the creature hasn't yet been the target of a spell or ability you control this turn. (2024-07-26)
  4. You pay all costs and follow all timing rules for cards played this way. For example, if the exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty. (2024-07-26)
