Carte Magic Temper

Temper 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

Prevent the next X damage that would be dealt to target creature this turn. For each 1 damage prevented this way, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.

How it works : Temper

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You can make X be larger than the amount of damage, but you only get one counter for each actual point of damage prevented.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The +1/+1 counters do show up at the same time as any unprevented damage, which means they are there before you check for lethal damage.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
