Rulings

1/19/2018	If Bishop of Binding leaves the battlefield before its first triggered ability tries to resolve, the target creature won't be exiled.
1/19/2018	Auras attached to the exiled creature will be put into their owners' graveyards. Any Equipment will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled creature will cease to exist.
1/19/2018	If a token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and won't return to the battlefield.
1/19/2018	The value of X is determined only as Bishop of Binding's second ability resolves. It won't change if the card leaves exile later in the turn.
1/19/2018	If there is no exiled card as Bishop of Binding's last ability resolves, most likely because Bishop of Binding left the battlefield while that ability was on the stack, X is 0. The same is true if the exiled card doesn't have a power, most likely because it's a noncreature card that had become a creature.
1/19/2018	If a Vehicle is exiled with Bishop of Binding, use its printed power to determine the value of X.
