Carte Magic Surge of Righteousness

Surge of Righteousness 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

Destroy target black or red creature that's attacking or blocking. You gain 2 life.

How it works : Surge of Righteousness

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If Surge of Righteousness resolves but the creature isn’t destroyed (perhaps because it regenerated or it has indestructible), you’ll still gain 2 life.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    However, if the creature becomes an illegal target before Surge of Righteousness resolves, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won’t gain life.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
