Savage Swipe 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
Target creature you control gets +2/+2 until end of turn if its power is 2. Then it fights target creature you don't control. (Each deals damage equal to its power to the other.)
How it works : Savage Swipe
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
You can’t cast Savage Swipe unless you choose both a creature you control and a creature you don’t control as targets.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
The target creature you control gets +2/+2 only if its power is exactly 2 as Savage Swipe resolves. It’ll still fight if it doesn’t get +2/+2.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If either target is an illegal target as Savage Swipe tries to resolve, neither creature will deal or be dealt damage.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If the creature you control is an illegal target as Savage Swipe tries to resolve, no creature gets +2/+2. If that creature is a legal target but the creature you don’t control isn’t, it still gets +2/+2 until end of turn if its power is 2.
