Carte Magic Ogre Battlecaster

Ogre Battlecaster 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

First strike Whenever this creature attacks, you may cast target instant or sorcery card from your graveyard by paying {R}{R} in addition to its other costs. If that spell would be put into a graveyard, exile it instead. When you cast that spell, this creature gets +X/+0 until end of turn, where X is that spell's mana value.

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast
