Shoal Kraken 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
Constellation — Whenever an enchantment you control enters, you may draw a card. If you do, discard a card.
How it works : Shoal Kraken
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
A constellation ability triggers whenever an enchantment enters the battlefield under your control for any reason. Enchantments with other card types, such as enchantment creatures, will also cause constellation abilities to trigger.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
An Aura spell that has an illegal target when it tries to resolve doesn’t resolve and is instead put into its owner’s graveyard. It doesn’t enter the battlefield, so constellation abilities don’t trigger.
No other card is named in this ruling.
