Carte Magic Reaper of Flight Moonsilver

Reaper of Flight Moonsilver 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

Flying Delirium — Sacrifice another creature: This creature gets +2/+1 until end of turn. Activate only if there are four or more card types among cards in your graveyard.

How it works : Reaper of Flight Moonsilver

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    The card types in Magic are artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, instant, kindred, land, planeswalker, and sorcery. Supertypes (such as legendary and basic) and subtypes (such as Human and Equipment) are not counted.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The number of card types matters, not the number of cards. For example, Wicker Witch (an artifact creature) along with Catalog (an instant) and Chaplain's Blessing (a sorcery) will enable delirium.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Because you consider only the characteristics of a double-faced card's front face while it's not on the battlefield, the types of its back face won't be counted for delirium.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    In some rare cases, you can have a token or a copy of a spell in your graveyard at the moment that an object's delirium ability counts the card types among cards in your graveyard, before that token or copy ceases to exist. Because tokens and copies of spells are not cards, even if they are copies of cards, their types will never be counted.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    Some delirium abilities are activated abilities of permanents. To activate such an ability, there must be four or more card types among cards in your graveyard. The number of card types is not rechecked as the ability resolves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
