Chronozoa 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
Flying Vanishing 3 (This creature enters with three time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter from it. When the last is removed, sacrifice it.) When this creature dies, if it had no time counters on it, create two tokens that are copies of it.
How it works : Chronozoa
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The ability checks to see if Chronozoa had no time counters on it at the time it was put into a graveyard from the battlefield. This doesn't necessarily mean it must have been sacrificed due to vanishing; it could have been put into the graveyard some other way (say, while the sacrifice ability of vanishing is on the stack).
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Chronozoa's last ability creates two Chronozoa tokens that each enter with three time counters and have all of Chronozoa's abilities.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If Chronozoa becomes a copy of another creature and is put into the graveyard from the battlefield, no copies will be created. If another creature becomes a copy of Chronozoa and is put into a graveyard from the battlefield (with no time counters on it), two copies of Chronozoa will be created.
