Carte Magic Defective Detective

Defective Detective 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

This creature can't be blocked. When this creature enters, a person outside the game looks at target opponent's hand and chooses a card from it. That player reveals that card.

How it works : Defective Detective

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You can choose any player not currently in your game. This includes people who used to be in your game but left it.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    It doesn’t have to be someone who plays Magic. This may be fun.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If there’s no one around to make a decision, you can call or text someone if you need to. If there’s a physical action required, such as high-fiving, you’ll need someone there.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
