You pay all costs and follow all timing rules for artifact spells cast with the permission granted by Noctis's last ability. - 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
Finality counters aren't keyword counters, and a finality counter doesn't give any abilities to the permanent it's on. If that permanent loses its abilities and then would go to a graveyard, it will still be exiled instead. - 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
Finality counters work on any permanent, not only creatures. If a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into a graveyard from the battlefield, exile it instead. - 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
Multiple finality counters on a single permanent are redundant. - 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
Finality counters don't stop permanents from going to zones other than the graveyard from the battlefield. For example, if a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into its owner's hand from the battlefield, it does so normally.
