Carte Magic Ezzaroot Channeler

Ezzaroot Channeler 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

Reach Creature spells you cast cost {X} less to cast, where X is the amount of life you gained this turn. {T}: You gain 2 life.

How it works : Ezzaroot Channeler

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Ezzaroot Channeler’s second ability counts the total amount of life gained without considering any life you lost during that turn. For example, if you lost 3 life and gained 4 life earlier in the turn, creature spells you cast will cost {4} less.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you’re paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Ezzaroot Channeler’s second ability). The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    The second ability’s cost reduction can reduce only generic mana in a spell’s total cost. It can’t reduce colored mana requirements.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
