Carte Magic TL;DR

TL;DR 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

Exile target creature if it has any abilities other than keywords. (Flying, protection, and partner are all keywords. See rule 702 for details. Landfall and scry aren't keywords; they're an ability word and a keyword action respectively. Yes, there's a difference.)

How it works : TL;DR

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You can target a creature with no abilities other than keywords with TL;DR, but when TL;DR resolves, it won’t exile that creature.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Yes, a keyword action is technically also a keyword, but it’s not possible for a creature to have a keyword action without having some other ability.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Playtest cards aren’t legal for play in any tournament format other than Mystery Booster Limited formats. On the other hand, we expect they will spice up a wide variety of non-tournament games (as long as everyone’s on the same page about using them!).

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as {T} and {W}. These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
