Carte Magic Bioessence Hydra

Bioessence Hydra 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

Trample This creature enters with a +1/+1 counter on it for each loyalty counter on planeswalkers you control. Whenever one or more loyalty counters are put on planeswalkers you control, put that many +1/+1 counters on this creature.

How it works : Bioessence Hydra

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Abilities that trigger when counters are put on a permanent trigger when a permanent enters the battlefield with counters and when a player puts counters on a permanent.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If Bioessence Hydra enters the battlefield at the same time as a planeswalker you control, the loyalty counters that planeswalker will receive won't be counted to determine how many counters Bioessence Hydra enters the battlefield with, but they will cause its last ability to trigger.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
