Carte Magic War-Name Aspirant

War-Name Aspirant 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

Raid — This creature enters with a +1/+1 counter on it if you attacked this turn. This creature can't be blocked by creatures with power 1 or less.

How it works : War-Name Aspirant

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Raid abilities care only that you attacked with a creature. It doesn't matter how many creatures you attacked with or which player, planeswalker, or battle those creatures attacked.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Raid abilities evaluate the entire turn to see if you attacked with a creature. That creature doesn't have to still be on the battlefield. Similarly, the player, planeswalker, or battle it attacked doesn't have to still be in the game or on the battlefield.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Once a creature legally blocks War-Name Aspirant, changing that creature's power to 1 or less won't change or undo that block.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
