Carte Magic Cerebral Download

Cerebral Download 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

Surveil X, where X is the number of artifacts you control. Then draw three cards. (To surveil X, look at the top X cards of your library, then put any number of them into your graveyard and the rest on top of your library in any order.)

How it works : Cerebral Download

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The value of X is calculated only once, as Cerebral Download resolves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
