Carte Magic Leeching Sliver

Leeching Sliver 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 a Sliver you control attacks, defending player loses 1 life.

How it works : Leeching Sliver

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Slivers in this set affect only Sliver creatures you control. They don’t grant bonuses to your opponents’ Slivers. This is the same way Slivers from the Magic 2014 core set worked, while Slivers in earlier sets granted bonuses to all Slivers.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Abilities that Slivers grant, as well as power/toughness boosts, are cumulative. However, for some abilities, like indestructible and the ability granted by Belligerent Sliver, having more than one instance of the ability doesn’t provide any additional benefit.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If you change the creature type of a Sliver you control so it’s no longer a Sliver, it will no longer be affected by its own ability. Its ability will continue to affect other Sliver creatures you control.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
