Plague Boiler 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
At the beginning of your upkeep, put a plague counter on this artifact.: Put a plague counter on this artifact or remove a plague counter from it. When this artifact has three or more plague counters on it, sacrifice it. If you do, destroy all nonland permanents.
How it works : Plague Boiler
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
You choose whether to add or remove a counter when the second ability resolves. You can’t choose to remove a counter if there isn’t one there.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If the third ability triggers, removing a counter in response won’t stop the effect. However, somehow removing Plague Boiler from the battlefield in response would stop the effect because then you wouldn’t be able to sacrifice Plague Boiler.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
The sacrifice is done on resolution of the triggered ability.
No other card is named in this ruling.
