Carte Magic Oliphaunt

Oliphaunt 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

Trample Whenever this creature attacks, another target creature you control gets +2/+0 and gains trample until end of turn. Mountaincycling {1} ({1}, Discard this card: Search your library for a Mountain card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.)

How it works : Oliphaunt

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Typecycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on a card being typecycled. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being activated also stops a typecycling ability from being activated.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Unlike the normal cycling ability, typecycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Rather, it lets you search your library for a card with the type or types indicated by the ability name. For example, a card with basic landcycling lets you search for a basic land card, and a card with Wizardcycling lets you search for a Wizard card.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
