Solved is a special keyword ability that can be found on Cases. Cases were introduced in Murders at Karlov Manor.
Description
The meaning of "solved" differs based on what type of ability follows it.[1]
- "Solved — [activated ability]" means "[Activated ability]. Activate only if this Case is solved." Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]."
- "Solved — [Triggered ability]" means "[Triggered ability]. This ability triggers only if this Case is solved." Triggered abilities use the word "when," "whenever," or "at." They're often written as "[Trigger condition], [effect]."
- "Solved — [static ability]" means "As long as this Case is solved, [static ability]." Static abilities are written as statements, such as "Creatures you control get +1/+1" or "Instant and sorcery spells you cast cost
less to cast."
Once a Case becomes solved, it stays solved until it leaves the battlefield. As long as it's solved, its "to solve" ability won't trigger again. A Case remains solved even if another player gains control of it. Cases don't lose their other abilities when they become solved.
