Carte Magic Giant's Skewer

Giant's Skewer 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

Equipped creature gets +2/+1. Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a creature, create a Food token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this token: You gain 3 life.") Equip {3} ({3}: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery.)

How it works : Giant's Skewer

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.

    Card named in this ruling

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
