Carte Magic Kerblam! Warehouse

Kerblam! Warehouse 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

Whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a player, create a Treasure token. Whenever chaos ensues, until your next turn, noncreature artifacts you control gain "{T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Flip a coin. If you win the flip, this artifact deals 3 damage to any target."

Complete guide

Step into the chaotic industrial depths of Kandoka with the Kerblam! Warehouse plane card. This location turns your successful combat strikes into cold hard cash and transforms your utility items into volatile explosives. Whether you are looking to ramp up your mana or blast your opponents, this warehouse has everything you need.

Industrial Production

The primary ability of Kerblam! Warehouse is a triggered ability that rewards aggression. Whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a player, you create a Treasure token. Note that this triggers only once per player dealt damage, regardless of how many creatures actually hit that player. These tokens can be used for mana or saved for the plane's chaotic secondary effect.

Explosive Chaos

When chaos ensues on the planar die, the warehouse enters a state of high alert. Until your next turn, every noncreature artifact you control gains a new activated ability. You can tap and sacrifice the artifact to flip a coin; if you win the flip, the artifact deals 3 damage to any target. This turns even the most mundane mana rocks into potential finishing blows.

Timing and Targets

When using the 'chaos' ability granted to your artifacts, you must choose a target for the damage before you flip the coin. Your opponents have the opportunity to respond to the ability while it is on the stack. Once the ability begins to resolve, you flip the coin, and if you win, the damage is dealt immediately without further opportunity for players to react to the flip result.

Strategic Implementation

Maximize this plane by attacking multiple players at once to generate several Treasure tokens in a single combat phase. If you roll chaos, evaluate your board state carefully. Sacrificing your long-term mana sources like Sol Ring for a 50% chance at 3 damage is a risky move, but it can be the difference between victory and defeat in a tight game.

Interaction examples

Double the Riches

If you attack two different opponents and both attacks connect, Kerblam! Warehouse triggers twice. You will create two Treasure tokens, providing you with flexible mana for your next main phase.

The Sol Ring Gamble

If chaos ensues, your Sol Ring gains the sacrifice ability. You can tap it for two colorless mana, then, while the mana is in your pool, activate the sacrifice ability. You target an opponent's creature and flip a coin. If you win the flip, the Sol Ring deals 3 damage to that creature before it leaves the battlefield.

Lands are Safe

Even if chaos ensues, your Command Tower will not gain the ability to be sacrificed for damage. The effect specifically only targets noncreature artifacts. Since Command Tower is a land and not an artifact, it remains a stable mana source.

How it works : Kerblam! Warehouse

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You choose a target for the activated ability before flipping a coin. Opponents will know what or who you are targeting before you flip, and can respond with spells and abilities at that point. They can't respond once the ability has begun to resolve and they see what the result of the coin flip is.
