Carte Magic Joint Assault

Joint Assault 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

Target creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn. If it's paired with a creature, that creature also gets +2/+2 until end of turn.

How it works : Joint Assault

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Joint Assault targets only one creature. If that creature is an illegal target when Joint Assault tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. No creature will get +2/+2.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Joint Assault checks whether the target creature is paired only when it resolves. If it becomes unpaired later in the turn, neither creature will lose the bonus. Similarly, if it becomes paired later in the turn, the creature it’s paired with won’t gain the bonus.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
