Carte Magic Scion of Opulence

Scion of Opulence 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

Whenever this creature or another nontoken Vampire you control dies, create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "{T}, Sacrifice this token: Add one mana of any color.") {R}, Sacrifice two artifacts: Exile the top card of your library. You may play that card this turn.

    Playing a card this way follows all the normal timing rules for that card. For example, if you play a land this way, you may do so only during your main phase while the stack is empty and only if you haven't yet played a land (unless another effect allows you to play additional lands).

    No other card is named in this ruling.
