1) Do cards that have give the ability to negate effects by destruction or commiting to the opponent are they considered to be commiting or destruction from the player controling the card?
Example: If my opponent activates Stand Off and I choose to negate its effect, is it commited by the effect controled by my opponent.
2) Is Mulliganing before or after the game starts, in other words can I react to my opponent removing the cards from play when they Mulligan?
Thanks.
