Carte Magic Focused Funambulist

Focused Funambulist 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

Flash As this creature enters, you may put an art sticker on the empty side of the balancing pole. When you do, ask a person outside the game "Does this look balanced?" If they say yes, you may tap or untap target creature.

How it works : Focused Funambulist

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You have to think spatially and ignore the wire in the foreground.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    It mostly doesn’t matter where on the right side of the balancing pole you place the sticker, but the outside person may take your placement into account when judging if it looks balanced or not.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    The outside person will have to decide for themselves how heavy they think the alien is.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Placing an art sticker is optional. If you don’t, the reflexive triggered ability doesn’t trigger. You won’t ask an outside person to decide if your clearly unbalanced pole looks balanced.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
