Carte Magic Livewire Lash

Livewire Lash 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

Equipped creature gets +2/+0 and has "Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell, this creature deals 2 damage to any target." Equip {2}

How it works : Livewire Lash

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    When the equipped creature becomes the target of a spell, the ability granted to it by Livewire Lash will trigger and go on the stack on top of it. It will resolve before the spell does.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The equipped creature is the source of both the triggered ability and the resultant damage, not Livewire Lash. For example, you can target and deal damage to a creature with protection from artifacts (assuming the equipped creature isn't an artifact itself, of course).

    No other card is named in this ruling.
