Carte Magic Minsc, Beloved Ranger

Minsc, Beloved Ranger 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

When Minsc enters, create Boo, a legendary 1/1 red Hamster creature token with trample and haste. {X}: Until end of turn, target creature you control has base power and toughness X/X and becomes a Giant in addition to its other types. Activate only as a sorcery.

How it works : Minsc, Beloved Ranger

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The activated ability will overwrite any previous effects that set the creature's power and toughness to specific values. Effects that otherwise modify the target creature's power and toughness will still apply no matter when they took effect. The same is true for +1/+1 counters.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Minsc has asked us (repeatedly) to let you know that Boo is the only miniature giant space hamster in the Realms.
