Cacophodon 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
Enrage — Whenever this creature is dealt damage, untap target permanent.
How it works : Cacophodon
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If multiple sources deal damage to a creature with an enrage ability at the same time, most likely because multiple creatures blocked that creature, the enrage ability triggers only once.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If lethal damage is dealt to a creature with an enrage ability, that ability triggers. The creature with that enrage ability leaves the battlefield before that ability resolves, so it won’t be affected by the resolving ability.
No other card is named in this ruling.
