Carte Magic Nylea's Disciple

Nylea's Disciple 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 this creature enters, you gain life equal to your devotion to green. (Each {G} in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to green.)

How it works : Nylea's Disciple

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Numeric mana symbols ({0}, {1}, and so on) in mana costs of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Mana symbols in the text boxes of permanents you control don't count toward your devotion to any color.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Hybrid mana symbols, monocolored hybrid mana symbols, and Phyrexian mana symbols do count toward your devotion to their color(s).

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If an activated ability or triggered ability has an effect that depends on your devotion to a color, you count the number of mana symbols of that color among the mana costs of permanents you control as the ability resolves. The permanent with that ability will be counted if it's still on the battlefield at that time.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
