Carte Magic Barbed Batterfist

Barbed Batterfist 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

For Mirrodin! (When this Equipment enters, create a 2/2 red Rebel creature token, then attach this to it.) Equipped creature gets +1/-1. Equip {1} ({1}: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery.)

How it works : Barbed Batterfist

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The Rebel enters the battlefield as a 2/2 creature, then the Equipment becomes attached to it. Abilities that trigger when a creature enters the battlefield see that a 2/2 creature entered the battlefield.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If the Rebel is destroyed, the Equipment stays on the battlefield. Similarly, you may pay its equip cost to move it from the Rebel token to another creature you control.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If the ability causes two Rebel tokens to be created (due to an effect such as that of Mondrak, Glory Dominus), the Equipment becomes attached to only one of them.
