Carte Magic Chartooth Cougar

Chartooth Cougar 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

{R}: This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn. Mountaincycling {2} ({2}, Discard this card: Search your library for a Mountain card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.)

How it works : Chartooth Cougar

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Unlike the normal cycling ability, Mountaincycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a Mountain card. After you find a Mountain card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Mountaincycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on Mountaincycling this card. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being activated also stops Mountaincycling from being activated.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Mountaincycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with Mountaincycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    You can choose to find any card with the Mountain land type, including nonbasic lands. You can also choose not to find a card, even if there is a Mountain card in your library.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
