Carte Magic White Orchid Phantom

White Orchid Phantom 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

Flying, first strike When this creature enters, destroy up to one target nonbasic land. Its controller may search their library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.

How it works : White Orchid Phantom

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If the target land isn't destroyed by White Orchid Phantom's last ability (perhaps because the land has indestructible), its controller still gets to search for a basic land card.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If the target land is an illegal target when White Orchid Phantom's last ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. That land's controller won't get to search for a basic land card.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
