Carte Magic Fervent Champion

Fervent Champion 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

First strike, haste Whenever this creature attacks, another target attacking Knight you control gets +1/+0 until end of turn. Equip abilities you activate that target this creature cost {3} less to activate.

How it works : Fervent Champion

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Fervent Champion's last ability reduces only the generic mana in equip abilities. If those costs are only {3}, {2}, or {1}, that equip ability will be free to activate if it targets Fervent Champion.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
