If In the Trenches leaves the battlefield and later returns to the battlefield, it is a new object on the battlefield with no memory of the last time it was there. Its ability may be activated, even if it was activated a previous time it was on the battlefield.
wotc14 Oct 2022
Auras attached to the exiled permanent will be put into their owners' graveyards. Equipment attached to an exiled creature will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled permanent will cease to exist.
wotc14 Oct 2022
The activated ability is a single ability that creates two one-shot effects: one that exiles the permanent when the ability resolves, and another that returns the exiled card to the battlefield immediately after In the Trenches leaves the battlefield.
wotc14 Oct 2022
If a token is exiled, it ceases to exist. It won't be returned to the battlefield.
wotc14 Oct 2022
If In the Trenches leaves the battlefield before its activated ability resolves, the target permanent won't be exiled.
wotc14 Oct 2022
The activated ability can only be activated once per game. If the ability is countered or otherwise fails to resolve after being activated, it can't be activated again.
Ranked by shared capabilities, colour identity, mana value and type — never by strategic judgement.
