Taeko, the Patient Avalanche 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
Taeko enters tapped. Whenever another creature you control leaves the battlefield, if it didn't die, scry 1 and put a +1/+1 counter on Taeko. Whenever Taeko attacks, you may pay. When you do, target attacking creature can't be blocked this turn.
How it works : Taeko, the Patient Avalanche
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If Taeko leaves the battlefield or dies at the same time as one or more other creatures you control leave the battlefield without dying, its second ability triggers once for each of those other creatures. You will scry for each of those other creatures, but Taeko will not be on the battlefield to receive +1/+1 counters.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
You don't choose a target for Taeko's last ability at the time it triggers. Rather, a second "reflexive" ability triggers when you pay
this way. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal.No other card is named in this ruling.
