Carte Magic Avalanche Tusker

Avalanche Tusker 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

Whenever this creature attacks, target creature defending player controls blocks it this combat if able.

How it works : Avalanche Tusker

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If the target creature can’t block Avalanche Tusker, but could block another attacking creature, it’s free to block that creature or block no creatures at all.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If, during the declare blockers step, the target creature is tapped or is affected by a spell or ability that says it can’t block, then it doesn’t block. If there’s a cost associated with having that creature block, its controller isn’t forced to pay that cost. If the player doesn’t, the creature doesn’t block in that case either.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
