Rulings
- 2024-02-02: Once you've announced that you're casting a spell, players can't take actions until you've finished doing so. Notably, opponents can't try to remove cards from your graveyard to stop you from collecting evidence.
- 2024-02-02: If either target is an illegal target as Bite Down on Crime tries to resolve, the creature you control won't deal damage.
- 2024-02-02: If you can't exile enough cards to meet or exceed the required mana value, you can't choose to collect evidence at all.
