Undercity's Embrace 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

Target opponent sacrifices a creature of their choice. If you control a creature with power 4 or greater, you gain 4 life.

How it works : Undercity's Embrace

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You can still gain 4 life even if the target opponent can’t sacrifice a creature.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Whether you control a creature with power 4 or greater is checked only after your opponent has sacrificed a creature. If a creature you own with power 4 or greater was exiled until the sacrificed creature left the battlefield, that creature will return to the battlefield before the check, so it will count. However, any abilities that trigger on the sacrificed creature’s death won’t have resolved yet when you check what creatures you control.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    You gain only 4 life, even if you control more than one creature with power 4 or greater.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
