Carte Magic Shiv's Embrace

Shiv's Embrace 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

Enchant creature Enchanted creature gets +2/+2 and has flying. {R}: Enchanted creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn.

How it works : Shiv's Embrace

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Only Shiv’s Embrace’s controller (who is not necessarily the enchanted creature’s controller) can activate its activated ability.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    When Shiv’s Embrace’s activated ability resolves, the creature Shiv’s Embrace is enchanting at that time will get +1/+0 (regardless of what creature Shiv’s Embrace was enchanting when the ability was activated). If Shiv’s Embrace has left the battlefield by then, the creature it was enchanting at the time it left the battlefield will get +1/+0.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
