Rules Lawyer, Artifact creature — cyborg advisor, designed by Dmitry Burmak first released in Jan, 2017 in the set Judge Gift Cards 2017 and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 6.80.
This Rules Lawyer card would greatly benefit a control deck that aims to protect its permanents and prevent game-ending situations, providing a strong layer of protection against various state-based actions. While Rules Lawyer offers unique and powerful protection, it may not be the most efficient choice for competitive play due to its high mana cost and vulnerability to removal spells. Other cards like Teferi, Time Raveler or Gideon Blackblade may offer similar protection along with additional utility, making them potentially better choices for inclusion in a deck.

A creature with toughness 0 or less can still attack and block. It blocks an attacking creature with trample, treat its toughness as 0 when determining how to assign combat damage.

Any ability that says a player wins or loses the game still works.

Auras you control stay on the battlefield if they’re attached to an illegal permanent or if they aren’t attached to a permanent (but should be). They may not do much because there probably won’t be an “enchanted [whatever],” but they’ll stay on the battlefield! (704.5m) Similarly, thanks to an un-documented silver-bordered state-based action no longer applying, your creatures with augment can now survive even if not attached to a host. If this happens, its power and toughness are 0/0. (704.5m)

Creatures you control shrug off opposing creatures with deathtouch. (704.5h)

Creatures you control with toughness of 0 or less remain on the battlefield. (704.5f)

Good news for Rasputin Dreamweaver fans: you can ignore abilities of permanents you control that say it can’t have more than a certain number of a certain kind of counter. (704.5r)

If you somehow control a creature that’s attached to another permanent, that creature can stay attached. It can attack and block, even if another creature is carrying it. Similarly, if you control a permanent that isn’t an Aura, an Equipment, or a Fortification, it can stay attached to whatever you manage to get it attached to. Strange. (704.5p)

If you try to draw from an empty library, nothing happens. (704.5b)

In Commander, you’re immune to the “commander damage rule” that says you lose if a single commander deals 21 or more combat damage to you. (704.5u)

While you control Rules Lawyer, the following is true, with the exception of not affecting Rules Lawyer itself (Comprehensive Rules references in parentheses):

You can control as many legendary permanents (including planeswalkers) with the same name as you want. It’s like your own personal Mirror Gallery! (704.5j)
