Carte Magic Elder Arthur Maxson

Elder Arthur Maxson 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

Creature tokens you control have training. (Whenever a creature token you control attacks with another creature with greater power, put a +1/+1 counter on that token.) Blind Betrayal — Sacrifice another creature: Elder Arthur Maxson gains indestructible until end of turn.

How it works : Elder Arthur Maxson

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    A creature’s training ability triggers only when both that creature and a creature with greater power are declared as attackers. Increasing a creature’s power after attackers are declared won’t cause a training ability to trigger.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Once a creature’s training ability has triggered, destroying the other attacking creature or reducing its power won’t stop the creature with training from getting a +1/+1 counter.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
