Carte Magic Test of Talents

Test of Talents 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

Counter target instant or sorcery spell. Search its controller's graveyard, hand, and library for any number of cards with the same name as that spell and exile them. That player shuffles, then draws a card for each card exiled from their hand this way.

How it works : Test of Talents

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Countering a spell normally puts that card into the graveyard, so that card will be there to find and exile.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If the back face of a modal double-faced card is countered, you will not be able to exile any cards, including the one that you countered, because those cards have only their front-face characteristics (including name) in the graveyard, hand, and library.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
