Ghired, Conclave Exile 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.
Official card text
When Ghired enters, create a 4/4 green Rhino creature token with trample. Whenever Ghired attacks, populate. The token enters tapped and attacking. (To populate, create a token that's a copy of a creature token you control.)
How it works : Ghired, Conclave Exile
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If you control no creature tokens when you populate, nothing will happen.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If you choose to copy a creature token that's a copy of another creature, the new creature token will copy the characteristics of whatever the original token is copying.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
The new creature token copies the characteristics of the original token as stated by the effect that created the original token.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
The new token doesn't copy whether the original token is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any noncopy effects that have changed its power, toughness, color, and so on.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied token will trigger when the new token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this creature] enters the battlefield" or "[this creature] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the copied token will also work.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
Populate doesn't target the creature token you're copying. You choose that creature token as you're taking the populate action. You can choose any creature token you control. If a spell or ability causes you to create a creature token and then instructs you to populate, you may choose to copy the token you just created, or you may choose to copy another creature token you control.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #7· Wizards of the Coast
Although the token is an attacking creature, it was never declared as an attacking creature. This means that abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger when it enters the battlefield attacking.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #8· Wizards of the Coast
Any effects that say that the token can't attack (such as that of Doomed Artisan, or if you copy a token with defender) affect only the declaration of attackers. They won't stop the token you populate from entering the battlefield attacking.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #9· Wizards of the Coast
In some rare cases, you might copy a creature token that isn't normally a creature. This token enters the battlefield as a noncreature permanent. It will be tapped but it won't be attacking.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #10· Wizards of the Coast
You choose which player or planeswalker the created token is attacking. It doesn't have to be attacking the same player or planeswalker that Ghired is attacking.
No other card is named in this ruling.
