Loading Zone 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
If one or more counters would be put on a creature, Spacecraft, or Planet you control, twice that many of each of those kinds of counters are put on it instead. Warp(You may cast this card from your hand for its warp cost. Exile this enchantment at the beginning of the next end step, then you may cast it from exile on a later turn.)
How it works : Loading Zone
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If a creature, Spacecraft, or Planet you control would enter the battlefield with a number of counters on it, it enters with twice that many instead.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If you control two Loading Zones, the number of counters put on a creature, Spacecraft, or Planet you control is four times the original number. Three Loading Zones multiplies the original number by eight, and so on.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If two or more effects attempt to modify how many counters would be put onto a permanent you control, you choose the order to apply those effects, no matter who controls the sources of those effects.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
The Loading Zone is for immediate loading and unloading only. There is no stopping in the Loading Zone. (Especially not if it was warped.)
No other card is named in this ruling.
