Carte Magic Tawnos, the Toymaker

Tawnos, the Toymaker 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

Whenever you cast a Beast or Bird creature spell, you may copy it, except the copy is an artifact in addition to its other types. (The copy becomes a token.)

How it works : Tawnos, the Toymaker

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    A resolving copy of a permanent spell becomes a token, so the token isn't "created." Effects that care about a token being created won't interact with a token that enters the battlefield from Tawnos, the Toymaker's ability.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The copy remembers any decisions that were made for the original spell as it was cast, including values chosen for X in its mana cost and whether any alternative or additional costs were chosen. For example, if the original creature spell had kicker and its kicker cost was paid, the copy will also be kicked.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
