Carte Magic Gilt-Leaf Ambush

Gilt-Leaf Ambush 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

Create two 1/1 green Elf Warrior creature tokens. Clash with an opponent. If you win, those creatures gain deathtouch until end of turn. (Each clashing player reveals the top card of their library, then puts that card on their choice of the top or bottom. A player wins if their card had a greater mana value. Any amount of damage a creature with deathtouch deals to a creature is enough to destroy it.)

How it works : Gilt-Leaf Ambush

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    This cards was originally printed with the "tribal" card type. That card type has been replaced with "kindred". This change does not affect the gameplay function of this card.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Kindred is a card type that allows noncreature cards to have creature types. For example, Echoes of Eternity is an Eldrazi (although not a creature) while on the battlefield and an Eldrazi card (although not a creature card) in zones other than the battlefield.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    While it appears only on cards that already have other card types, kindred is a card type and will be counted by effects that refer to the number of card types among cards in a zone.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
