Windswift Slice 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.
Official card text
Target creature you control deals damage equal to its power to target creature you don't control. Create a number of 1/1 green Elf Warrior creature tokens equal to the amount of excess damage dealt this way.
How it works : Windswift Slice
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Excess damage has been dealt to a creature if the damage dealt to it is greater than lethal damage. Usually, this means damage greater than its toughness, although damage already marked on the creature is taken into account.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Even 1 damage dealt to a creature from a source with deathtouch is considered lethal damage, so any amount greater than that will cause excess damage to be dealt, even if the total amount of damage isn't greater than the creature's toughness. Note that a source of damage having deathtouch has no effect on damage dealt to planeswalkers.
No other card is named in this ruling.
