Carte Magic Applied Geometry

Applied Geometry 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.

01

Official card text

Create a token that's a copy of target non-Aura permanent you control, except it's a 0/0 Fractal creature in addition to its other types. Put six +1/+1 counters on it.

How it works : Applied Geometry

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Any enters abilities of the copied permanent will trigger when the token enters. Any "as [this permanent] enters" or "[this permanent] enters with" abilities of the copied permanent will also work.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The token created by Applied Geometry copies exactly what was printed on the original permanent and nothing else, with the listed exception (unless that permanent is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that permanent is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, or so on. If it is a Vehicle, it is not crewed. If it is an Equipment, it is not attached to any creature.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If the copied permanent is a token, the token that's created copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created the token, with the listed exception.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If the copied permanent is copying something else, then the token enters as whatever that permanent copied, with the listed exception.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
