Forum Necroscribe 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
Ward—Discard a card. Repartee — Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets a creature, return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield.
How it works : Forum Necroscribe
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
A repartee ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
It doesn't matter if the creature or creatures targeted by the spell that caused the repartee ability to trigger leave the battlefield or stop being creatures before that spell resolves. As long as that spell targeted one or more creatures when it was cast, the repartee ability will trigger and later resolve.
No other card is named in this ruling.
