Carte Magic Morcant's Eyes

Morcant's Eyes 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

At the beginning of your upkeep, surveil 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it into your graveyard.) {4}{G}{G}, Sacrifice this enchantment: Create X 2/2 black and green Elf creature tokens, where X is the number of Elf cards in your graveyard. Activate only as a sorcery.

How it works : Morcant's Eyes

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The value of X is calculated only once, as Morcant's Eyes's last ability resolves. In most cases, Morcant's Eyes will be in your graveyard at that time, so it will count toward the value of X.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    While it appears only on cards that already have other card types, kindred is a card type and will be counted by effects that refer to the number of card types among cards in a zone.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Some older cards were originally printed with the "tribal" card type. That card type has been replaced with "kindred." This change does not affect the gameplay function of these cards.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Kindred is a card type that allows noncreature cards to have creature types. For example, Morcant's Eyes is an Elf (although not a creature) while on the battlefield and an Elf card (although not a creature card) in zones other than the battlefield.
