Carte Magic Chandra, Heart of Fire

Chandra, Heart of Fire 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

+1: Discard your hand, then exile the top three cards of your library. Until end of turn, you may play cards exiled this way. +1: Chandra deals 2 damage to any target. −9: Search your graveyard and library for any number of red instant and/or sorcery cards, exile them, then shuffle. You may cast them this turn. Add six {R}.

How it works : Chandra, Heart of Fire

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If you have no cards in hand, you still exile three cards while resolving Chandra's first ability and you may play them this turn.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions for the exiled cards for Chandra's first and last abilities. If one is a land, you can't play it unless you have land plays available.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    You'll still pay all costs for a spell cast this way, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs if any are available.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If you don't play the exiled cards, they remain exiled.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    Because it's a loyalty ability, Chandra's last ability isn't a mana ability. It can be activated only any time you could cast a sorcery. It uses the stack and can be responded to.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
