Voidpouncer 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

Devoid (This card has no color.) Kicker {2}{C} (You may pay an additional {2}{C} as you cast this spell.) If this creature was kicked, it enters with two +1/+1 counters and a trample counter on it and with haste.

How it works : Voidpouncer

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  6. #6· Wizards of the Coast

    To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  7. #7· Wizards of the Coast

    A card with devoid is just colorless. It's not colorless and the colors of mana in its mana cost.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  8. #8· Wizards of the Coast

    Other cards and abilities can give a card with devoid a color. If that happens, it's just the new color, not that color and colorless.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  9. #9· Wizards of the Coast

    Devoid works in all zones, not just on the battlefield.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  10. #10· Wizards of the Coast

    If a card loses devoid, it will still be colorless. This is because effects that change an object's color (like the one created by devoid) are considered before the object loses devoid.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  11. #11· Wizards of the Coast

    Devoid doesn't affect the color identity of the card for the purposes of the Commander variant. For example, while Abstruse Appropriation is colorless because it has devoid, its color identity is still white and black, and it can't be included in a Commander deck where the commander's color identity doesn't include both white and black.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
