Carte Magic Sylvan Primordial

Sylvan Primordial 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

Reach When this creature enters, for each opponent, destroy target noncreature permanent that player controls. Search your library for up to X Forest cards, where X is the number of permanents destroyed this way, put those cards onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.

How it works : Sylvan Primordial

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If an opponent has any legal permanents to target, you must target one of them.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If Sylvan Primordial’s enters-the-battlefield ability resolves but one of the target noncreature permanents isn’t destroyed (perhaps because it has indestructible or it regenerated), it won’t count toward the number of Forest cards you can put onto the battlefield.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    You search and shuffle your library only once.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
