General changes

Old rule (Ravnica: City of Guilds) New rule (Guildpact)

Static Ability

Static abilities do something all the time rather than being played at specific times. Static abilities create continuous effects, which are active as long as the permanent with the ability remains in play and has the ability, or as long as the object with the ability remains in the appropriate zone. A spell or ability can also create a continuous effect; these may last a specified length of time or for the rest of the game. See rule 412, "Handling Static Abilities."
