Easy Prerequisites

  1. Your life total is at least 2.

Notable Prerequisites

  1. You have more cards in hand than your maximum hand size.

Steps

  1. Proceed to your next cleanup step, causing you to discard cards down to your maximum hand size.

  5. Resolve all remaining Containment Construct abilities, if applicable, choosing not to exile anything.
