Carte Magic Whispering Snitch

Whispering Snitch 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

Whenever you surveil for the first time each turn, this creature deals 1 damage to each opponent and you gain 1 life.

How it works : Whispering Snitch

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    An ability that triggers "whenever you surveil" triggers after you're done surveilling, even if you have fewer cards in your library than the number of cards you're instructed to surveil. It even triggers if you have no cards in your library.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If you surveil before Whispering Snitch enters the battlefield, surveilling again during that turn won't cause its ability to trigger.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    In a Two-Headed Giant game, Whispering Snitch's ability causes the opposing team to lose 2 life and you gain 1 life.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
