Carte Magic Glamdring

Glamdring 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 has first strike and gets +1/+0 for each instant and sorcery card in your graveyard. Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, you may cast an instant or sorcery spell from your hand with mana value less than or equal to that damage without paying its mana cost. Equip {3}

How it works : Glamdring

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost", you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If the spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If you cast a spell using Glamdring's triggered ability, you do so as part of the resolution of the ability. You can't wait to cast the spell later in the turn. Timing permissions based on the card's type are ignored.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
