Carte Magic Shessra, Death's Whisper

Shessra, Death's Whisper 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

Bewitching Whispers — When Shessra enters, target creature blocks this turn if able. Whispers of the Grave — At the beginning of your end step, if a creature died this turn, you may pay 2 life. If you do, draw a card.

How it works : Shessra, Death's Whisper

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If the creature affected by the Bewitching Whispers ability is tapped or is affected by a spell or ability that says it can't block, then it doesn't block. If there's a cost associated with having that creature block, its controller isn't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't have to block in that case either.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Shessra, Death's Whisper's last ability will trigger only once during your end step, no matter how many creatures died this turn. However, if no creatures have died so far this turn as the end step begins, the ability won't trigger at all. It's not possible to cause a creature to die during the end step in time to have the ability trigger.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
