Carte Magic Suffocation

Suffocation 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

Cast this spell only if you were dealt damage this turn by a red instant or sorcery spell. Suffocation deals 4 damage to the controller of the last red instant or sorcery spell that dealt damage to you this turn. Draw a card at the beginning of the next turn's upkeep.

How it works : Suffocation

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    It means “red instant or red sorcery” not “red instant or any sorcery”.
