Carte Magic Glint Hawk

Glint Hawk 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

Flying When this creature enters, sacrifice it unless you return an artifact you control to its owner's hand.

How it works : Glint Hawk

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You may choose to sacrifice Glint Hawk as its triggered ability resolves even if you control an artifact.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    You choose which artifact to return to its owner’s hand as the triggered ability resolves. If you control no artifacts at that time, you must sacrifice Glint Hawk. Although players can respond to the ability, once it starts to resolve and you choose an artifact you control to return to its owner’s hand, it’s too late for players to respond.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
