Carte Magic Vampire's Kiss

Vampire's Kiss 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 player loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. Create two Blood tokens. (They're artifacts with "{1}, {T}, Discard a card, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")

How it works : Vampire's Kiss

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If an effect refers to a Blood token, it means any artifact token with the subtype Blood, even if it has gained other subtypes.

    Card named in this ruling

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    You can't sacrifice a Blood token to pay multiple costs.

    Card named in this ruling

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Some triggered abilities trigger "whenever you sacrifice a Blood token." These abilities trigger regardless of why you sacrificed that Blood token.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Some spells that instruct you to create a Blood token require targets. You can't cast these spells without choosing all required targets, and if all of those targets become illegal targets, the spell won't resolve and you won't create any Blood tokens. If some but not all of those targets become illegal, you'll do as much as possible, including creating Blood tokens.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    If the target player is an illegal target as this spell tries to resolve, you won't gain 2 life and won't create any Blood tokens.
