Ahn-Crop Champion is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
You may exert this creature as it attacks. When you do, untap all other creatures you control. (An exerted creature won't untap during your next untap step.)
How it works : Ahn-Crop Champion
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
All attackers are chosen at once. You can’t attack with Ahn-Crop Champion, untap a tapped creature, and then attack with that creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Untapping an attacking creature doesn’t remove it from combat.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If you attack with two Ahn-Crop Champions and exert both, each will untap the other.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
You can’t exert a creature unless an effect allows you to do so. Similar effects that “tap and freeze” a creature (such as that of Decision Paralysis) don’t exert that creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
If an exerted creature is already untapped during your next untap step (most likely because it had vigilance or an effect untapped it), exert’s effect preventing it from untapping expires without having done anything.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
If you gain control of another player’s creature until end of turn and exert it, it will untap during that player’s untap step.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #7· Wizards of the Coast
All cards in the Amonkhet set that let you exert a creature let you do so as you declare it as an attacking creature, as do some of the cards in the Hour of Devastation set. You can’t do so later in combat, and creatures put onto the battlefield attacking can’t be exerted. Any abilities that trigger on exerting an attacking creature will resolve before blockers are declared.
No other card is named in this ruling.
