Primal Empathy 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, draw a card if you control a creature with the greatest power among creatures on the battlefield. Otherwise, put a +1/+1 counter on a creature you control.
How it works : Primal Empathy
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
You determine whether you draw a card or put a +1/+1 counter only as Primal Empathy's triggered ability begins resolving. Players may respond to the ability to try to change which happens.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If the greatest power among creatures on the battlefield is shared by a creature you control and a creature you don't control, you draw a card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If you don't control a creature with the greatest power, you choose which creature gets a +1/+1 counter while the ability is resolving. Players can't take actions in between the time you make this choice and the time that creature has a +1/+1 counter.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If you control no creatures, you do nothing as Primal Empathy's ability resolves. If there are no creatures on the battlefield at all, you don't draw a card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
