Carte Magic Preacher

Preacher 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

You may choose not to untap this creature during your untap step. {T}: For as long as this creature remains tapped, gain control of target creature of an opponent's choice they control.

How it works : Preacher

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Whether Preacher is tapped is checked continually, starting when the ability is activated. If, before the ability resolves, there’s any point at which Preacher is untapped, the ability has no effect — even if Preacher is tapped again by the time the ability resolves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    When you activate the ability, you choose an opponent, then that opponent chooses the target.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    The target of the ability is a creature the chosen opponent controls. As the ability resolves, if the target isn’t a creature controlled by the chosen opponent, the ability won’t resolve. If the ability’s target is changed somehow, the new target must be a creature controlled by the chosen opponent.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
