Carte Magic Gaea's Touch

Gaea's Touch 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

{0}: You may put a basic Forest card from your hand onto the battlefield. Activate only as a sorcery and only once each turn. Sacrifice this enchantment: Add {G}{G}.

How it works : Gaea's Touch

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The land enters the battlefield directly from your hand, but it is not “played”. This means it does not count towards the number of lands played this turn and doesn’t trigger abilities that would trigger if the Forest had been played.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
