Rulings

  • 2011-09-22

    "You" refers to the controller of Curiosity, which may be different from the controller of the enchanted creature. "An opponent" refers to an opponent of Curiosity's controller.

  • 2011-09-22

    Any damage dealt by the enchanted creature to an opponent will cause Curiosity to trigger, not just combat damage.

  • 2023-09-01

    Curiosity doesn't trigger if the enchanted creature deals damage to a planeswalker or to a battle.

  • 2023-09-01

    If you control Curiosity and it's enchanting an opponent's creature, you won't draw a card when that creature deals damage to you. The creature has to deal damage to one of your opponents for the ability to trigger.

  • 2023-09-01

    You draw one card each time the enchanted creature deals damage to an opponent, no matter how much damage it deals.
