Carte Magic Crawling Barrens

Crawling Barrens 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

{T}: Add {C}. {4}: Put two +1/+1 counters on this land. Then you may have it become a 0/0 Elemental creature until end of turn. It's still a land.

How it works : Crawling Barrens

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You can activate Crawling Barrens's second ability even if it's already a creature.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Counters on Crawling Barrens remain on it when it stops being a creature. If it becomes a creature later, they'll apply to it.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Unless Crawling Barrens is already a creature, its second ability causes the +1/+1 counters to be put onto a noncreature land. Abilities that apply or trigger when counters are put on a creature you control won't do so.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If this becomes a creature but you haven't controlled it continuously since your most recent turn began, you won't be able to activate its mana ability or attack with it that turn.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
