Carte Magic Fungal Infection

Fungal Infection 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

Target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn. Create a 1/1 green Saproling creature token.

How it works : Fungal Infection

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Fungal Infection tries to resolve, the spell doesn’t resolve. You won’t create a Saproling token.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The target creature will be on the battlefield when you create the Saproling token, even if it’s about to die for having 0 toughness or lethal damage. Its abilities may affect the token’s creation or trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Abilities that trigger this way will resolve after the target creature has died.
