Carte Magic Lecturing Scornmage

Lecturing Scornmage 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

Repartee — Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets a creature, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.

How it works : Lecturing Scornmage

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    It doesn't matter if the creature or creatures targeted by the spell that caused the repartee ability to trigger leave the battlefield or stop being creatures before that spell resolves. As long as that spell targeted one or more creatures when it was cast, the repartee ability will trigger and later resolve.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    A repartee ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
