9/25/2020	Anticognition can target a spell that can't be countered. You'll still scry 2 if an opponent has eight or more cards in their graveyard.
9/25/2020	An ability that offers a bonus if an opponent has eight or more cards in their graveyard won't provide additional benefits if more than one opponent has eight or more cards in their graveyard. There are also no additional benefits no matter how many cards are in an opponent's graveyard, as long as there are at least eight.
9/25/2020	In a multiplayer game, once an opponent leaves the game, they won't be considered for such an effect, no matter how many cards they had in their graveyard before leaving the game.
