What happens to a Reset that gets Rebounded?

Asked by NorainJS 6 years ago

I understand that if a card resolves while it has rebound (I'm thinking of using Cast Through Time for that) it is exiled and if it is unable to be cast on your next upkeep it is simply left in exile. From what I've read of the rulings on Rebound, it says it requires valid targets to be cast from rebound but I haven't been able to come across anything about spells such as Reset... I would assume it would simply stay in exile because it cannot be cast during my upkeep, but I thought I'd double check just to be sure. TL;DR What happens to my Reset if Cast Through Time is in play?

Reset won't get cast from Rebound in your example.

If a resolving spell or ability gives you an impossible instruction, you ignore that part and do as much as possible. The Rebound ability is telling you to cast Reset during your upkeep, but Reset's own rules text says you're not allowed to do that. The end result is that nothing happens.
