Path of Annihilation 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.
Official card text
Devoid (This card has no color.) When this enchantment enters, create two 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature tokens with "Sacrifice this token: Add." Eldrazi you control have "
: Add one mana of any color." Whenever you cast a creature spell with mana value 7 or greater, you gain 4 life.
How it works : Path of Annihilation
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
In the rare case where Path of Annihilation is an Eldrazi, it will grant itself the ability "
: Add one mana of any color."No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Path of Annihilation's last ability resolves before the spell that causes it to trigger. The ability will resolve even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
A card with devoid is just colorless. It's not colorless and the colors of mana in its mana cost.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
Other cards and abilities can give a card with devoid a color. If that happens, it's just the new color, not that color and colorless.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
Devoid works in all zones, not just on the battlefield.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
If a card loses devoid, it will still be colorless. This is because effects that change an object's color (like the one created by devoid) are considered before the object loses devoid.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #7· Wizards of the Coast
Devoid doesn't affect the color identity of the card for the purposes of the Commander variant. For example, while Abstruse Appropriation is colorless because it has devoid, its color identity is still white and black, and it can't be included in a Commander deck where the commander's color identity doesn't include both white and black.
No other card is named in this ruling.
