"Rage courses in every heart, yearning to betray its rational prison."
—Sarkhan Vol

Act of Treason

Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap that creature. It gains haste until end of turn.

Act of Treason can target any creature, even one that's untapped or one you already control.

Gaining control of a creature doesn't cause you to gain control of any Auras or Equipment attached to it.

Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap that creature. It gains haste until end of turn. (It can attack and {T} this turn.)

Aquamorph Entity

As Aquamorph Entity enters the battlefield or is turned face up, it becomes your choice of 5/1 or 1/5.
Morph {2}{U} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

If a creature enters as a copy of a face-up Aquamorph Entity, or a Vesuvan Shapeshifter turns face up as a copy of one, the controller of the creature entering gets to make the choice.

If a creature that's already on the battlefield becomes a copy of a face-up Aquamorph Entity, its power and toughness become the power and toughness that were chosen for the Entity.

The first ability is a replacement effect. The choice is made as Aquamorph Entity is turned face up (or enters); it turns face up (or enters) as a creature of that size. It doesn't become a 0/0 and then a creature of the chosen size.

As Aquamorph Entity enters or is turned face up, it becomes your choice of 5/1 or 1/5.
Morph {2}{U} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

"Don't try to hit your enemies. Concentrate on the space between them, and fill the air with doom."

Arc Trail

Arc Trail deals 2 damage to target creature or player and 1 damage to another target creature or player.

Arc Trail deals 2 damage to any target and 1 damage to another target.

"Do not concern yourself with my origin, my race, or my ancestry. Seek my record in the pits, and then make your wager."

Arcanis the Omnipotent

{T}: Draw three cards.
{2}{U}{U}: Return Arcanis the Omnipotent to its owner's hand.

Arcanis’s last ability can be activated only while it’s on the battlefield.

Arrow Volley Trap

If four or more creatures are attacking, you may pay {1}{W} rather than pay Arrow Volley Trap's mana cost.
Arrow Volley Trap deals 5 damage divided as you choose among any number of target attacking creatures.

Casting a Trap by paying its alternative cost doesn’t change its mana cost or mana value. The only difference is the cost you actually pay.

Effects that increase or reduce the cost to cast a Trap will apply to whichever cost you chose to pay.

You divide the damage as you cast Arrow Volley Trap, not as it resolves. Each target must be assigned at least 1 damage.

You may ignore a Trap’s alternative cost condition and simply cast it for its normal mana cost. This is true even if its alternative cost condition has been met.

If four or more creatures are attacking, you may pay {1}{W} rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
Arrow Volley Trap deals 5 damage divided as you choose among any number of target attacking creatures.

For Sarkhan Vol, the dragon is the purest expression of life's savage splendor.

Banefire

Banefire deals X damage to target creature or player.
If X is 5 or more, Banefire can't be countered by spells or abilities and the damage can't be prevented.

Banefire can be targeted by spells that try to counter it regardless of what the value of X is. If X is 5 or more, those spells will still resolve, but the part of their effect that would counter Banefire won’t do anything. Any other effects those spells have will work as normal.

If its target is illegal by the time Banefire tries to resolve, the spell isn’t countered, but it doesn’t resolve. The target won’t be dealt damage.

To determine whether it can be countered and its damage can be prevented, Banefire checks the number you chose for X, not the amount of mana you actually spent or the amount of damage it will actually deal.

Banefire deals X damage to any target.
If X is 5 or more, this spell can't be countered and the damage can't be prevented.

Whether trained, ridden, or eaten, few goblin military innovations have rivaled the bug.

Beetleback Chief

When Beetleback Chief enters the battlefield, put two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens onto the battlefield.

When Beetleback Chief enters, create two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens.

Witches of the Split-Eye Coven speak of a future when Grixis will overflow with life energy. For now, they must harvest vis from the living to fuel their dark magics.

Bone Splinters

As an additional cost to cast Bone Splinters, sacrifice a creature.
Destroy target creature.

Once you begin to cast Bone Splinters, no player may take actions until you’re done. Notably, opponents can’t try to remove the creature you wish to sacrifice.

You must sacrifice exactly one creature to cast this spell; you can’t cast it without sacrificing a creature, and you can’t sacrifice additional creatures.

As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature.
Destroy target creature.

They wait in darkened depths, laughing eagerly.

Coral Trickster

Morph {U} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)
When Coral Trickster is turned face up, you may tap or untap target permanent.

"The people of Akros must learn from our leonin adversaries. If we match their staunch ferocity with our superior faith, we cannot fail."
—Cymede, queen of Akros

Dauntless Onslaught

Up to two target creatures each get +2/+2 until end of turn.

The undead of Grixis are fueled by their hatred of the living.

Dregscape Zombie

Unearth {B} ({B}: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

Activating a creature card’s unearth ability isn’t the same as casting the creature card. The unearth ability is put on the stack, but the creature card is not. Spells and abilities that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle) will interact with unearth, but spells and abilities that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul) will not.

At the beginning of the end step, a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Stifle or Voidslime that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the creature will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won’t trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the creature when it eventually leaves the battlefield.

If a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it’s exiled instead — unless the spell or ability that’s causing the creature to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If it later returns the creature card to the battlefield (as Oblivion Ring or Flickerwisp might, for example), the creature card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.

If you activate a card’s unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.

Unearth grants haste to the creature that’s returned to the battlefield. However, neither of the “exile” abilities is granted to that creature. If that creature loses all its abilities, it will still be exiled at the beginning of the end step, and if it would leave the battlefield, it is still exiled instead.

Echo Tracer

Morph {2}{U} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)
When Echo Tracer is turned face up, return target creature to its owner's hand.

The trigger occurs when you use the Morph ability to turn the card face up, or when an effect turns it face up. It will not trigger on being revealed or on leaving the battlefield.

Without the interfering hands of civilization, nature will always shape itself to its own needs.

Evolving Wilds

{T}, Sacrifice Evolving Wilds: Search your library for a basic land card and put it onto the battlefield tapped. Then shuffle your library.

Many Tin Street shops display a sign on the door: "No cloaks allowed."

Faerie Impostor

Flying
When Faerie Impostor enters the battlefield, sacrifice it unless you return another creature you control to its owner's hand.

Returning another creature you control to its owner’s hand is optional. You may choose to sacrifice Faerie Impostor, even if you could return a creature.

Flying
When Faerie Impostor enters, sacrifice it unless you return another creature you control to its owner's hand.

Small enough to penetrate the narrowest crack in a castle wall and numerous enough to hack apart a griffin.

Fathom Seer

Morph—
Return two Islands you control to their owner's hand. (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

When Fathom Seer is turned face up, draw two cards.

Fiery Fall

Fiery Fall deals 5 damage to target creature.
Basic landcycling {1}{R} ({1}{R}, Discard this card: Search your library for a basic land card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library.)

Basic landcycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on a card being basic landcycled. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being activated also stops a basic landcycling ability from being activated.

Basic landcycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with basic landcycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.

Unlike the normal cycling ability, basic landcycling doesn’t allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a basic land card. You don’t choose the type of basic land card you’ll find until you’re performing the search. After you choose a basic land card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.

You can choose not to find a basic land card, even if there is one in your library.

Fiery Fall deals 5 damage to target creature.
Basic landcycling {1}{R} ({1}{R}, Discard this card: Search your library for a basic land card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.)

Boros soldiers are like a cache of bombs ready to explode, and the flame-kin light their fuses.

Flame-Kin Zealot

When Flame-Kin Zealot enters the battlefield, creatures you control get +1/+1 and gain haste until end of turn.

All creatures under your control when Flame-Kin Zealot’s triggered ability resolves are affected, including Flame-Kin Zealot itself. Ones that come under your control or become creatures later in the turn are not.

When Flame-Kin Zealot enters, creatures you control get +1/+1 and gain haste until end of turn.

The first spell taught to young mages, it has spared the lives of many whose hands are too small to hold a sword.

Fleeting Distraction

Target creature gets -1/-0 until end of turn.
Draw a card.

If the targeted creature is an illegal target by the time Fleeting Distraction resolves, the spell doesn’t resolve. You won’t draw a card.

If the targeted creature is an illegal target when Fleeting Distraction tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won’t draw a card.

Grixis is a world where the only things found in abundance are death and decay. Corpses, whole or in part, are the standard currency among necromancers and demons.

Fleshbag Marauder

When Fleshbag Marauder enters the battlefield, each player sacrifices a creature.

As Fleshbag Marauder's ability resolves, first the player whose turn it is chooses a creature to sacrifice, then each other player in turn order does the same knowing the choices made before them. Then all those creatures are sacrificed simultaneously.

When its ability resolves, you may sacrifice Fleshbag Marauder itself. If you control no other creatures, you'll have to sacrifice Fleshbag Marauder.

When Fleshbag Marauder enters, each player sacrifices a creature.

The upside to not thinking about the consequences is that you'll always surprise those who do.

Frenzied Goblin

Whenever Frenzied Goblin attacks, you may pay {R}. If you do, target creature can't block this turn.

Frenzied Goblin's ability has only one target. You can't pay {R} multiple times to stop multiple creatures from blocking.

Fury of the Horde

You may exile two red cards from your hand rather than pay Fury of the Horde's mana cost.
Untap all creatures that attacked this turn. After this main phase, there is an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.

If it’s somehow not a main phase when Fury of the Horde resolves, all it does is untap all creatures that attacked that turn. No new phases are created.

If you don’t have two cards of the right color in your hand, you can’t choose to cast the spell using the alternative cost.

Paying the alternative cost doesn’t change when you can cast the spell. A creature spell you cast this way, for example, can still only be cast during your main phase while the stack is empty.

You can’t exile a card from your hand to pay for itself. At the time you would pay costs, that card is on the stack, not in your hand.

You may pay the alternative cost rather than the card’s mana cost. Any additional costs are paid as normal.

You may exile two red cards from your hand rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
Untap all creatures that attacked this turn. After this main phase, there is an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.

Ghitu Encampment

Ghitu Encampment enters the battlefield tapped.
{T}: Add {R} to your mana pool.
{1}{R}: Ghitu Encampment becomes a 2/1 red Warrior creature with first strike until end of turn. It's still a land.

A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.

Activating the ability that turns it into a creature while it’s already a creature will override any effects that set its power and/or toughness to a specific number. However, any effect that raises or lowers power and/or toughness (such as the effect created by Giant Growth, Glorious Anthem, or a +1/+1 counter) will continue to apply.

Ghitu Encampment enters tapped.
{T}: Add {R}.
{1}{R}: Ghitu Encampment becomes a 2/1 red Warrior creature with first strike until end of turn. It's still a land. (It deals combat damage before creatures without first strike.)

With one motion, a pest is removed and a scourge inflicted.

Goblin Bombardment

Sacrifice a creature: Goblin Bombardment deals 1 damage to target creature or player.

Sacrifice a creature: Goblin Bombardment deals 1 damage to any target.

Every once in a while, when they aren't getting incinerated in lava, crushed under rock slides, or devoured by dragons, goblins experience moments of unmitigated glory in battle.

Goblin Deathraiders

They poured from the Skirk Ridge like lava, burning and devouring everything in their path.

Goblin Warchief

Goblin spells you cast cost {1} less to cast.
Goblin creatures you control have haste.

Goblin Warchief’s effect reduces only generic mana in the cost of Goblin spells you cast. For example, it doesn’t reduce the cost of Skirk Prospector below {R}.

Goblin spells you cast cost {1} less to cast.
Goblins you control have haste.

Hell's Thunder

Flying, haste
At the beginning of the end step, sacrifice Hell's Thunder.
Unearth {4}{R} ({4}{R}: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

Don't let him lead the soldiers, but by all means let him lead the way.

Hellraiser Goblin

Creatures you control have haste and attack each combat if able.

Hellraiser Goblin's ability also affects itself. If it enters before combat, it will have to attack that combat if able.

If, during your declare attackers step, a creature you control is tapped or is affected by a spell or ability that says it can't attack, then it doesn't attack. If there's a cost associated with having a creature attack, you aren't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't have to attack in that case either.

"Forgive me, Master Kami, but in the interest of my people I must halt your advance."

Hold the Line

Blocking creatures get +7/+7 until end of turn.

"You think no one is watching, you think you're smart enough to escape, and most foolish of all, you think no one cares."

Hussar Patrol

Flash (You may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant.)
Vigilance

"You call it luck. I call it preparation."

Impulse

Look at the top four cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order.

Due to errata, you no longer shuffle your library.

"Swords, to me! We must engage their line to protect our archers and mages. Let no one fail this task!"

Infantry Veteran

{T}: Target attacking creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.

An “attacking creature” is one that has been declared as an attacker this combat, or one that was put onto the battlefield attacking this combat. Unless that creature leaves combat, it continues to be an attacking creature through the end of combat step, even if the player it was attacking has left the game, or the planeswalker it was attacking has left combat.

Inferno Trap

If you've been dealt damage by two or more creatures this turn, you may pay {R} rather than pay Inferno Trap's mana cost.
Inferno Trap deals 4 damage to target creature.

Casting a Trap by paying its alternative cost doesn't change its mana cost or mana value. The only difference is the cost you actually pay.

Inferno Trap's alternative cost condition checks for any damage, not just combat damage.

The alternative cost condition doesn't check who controlled the creatures that dealt damage to you. Damage dealt to you by your own creatures counts.

The alternative cost condition is satisfied only if two different creatures dealt damage to you, not if one creature dealt damage to you twice. The damage may have been dealt to you simultaneously (as with combat damage), or at separate times.

You may ignore a Trap's alternative cost condition and simply cast it for its normal mana cost. This is true even if its alternative cost condition has been met.

You may target any creature, not just one that dealt damage to you this turn.

If you've been dealt damage by two or more creatures this turn, you may pay {R} rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
Inferno Trap deals 4 damage to target creature.

Island

Jeskai Elder

Prowess (Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.)
Whenever Jeskai Elder deals combat damage to a player, you may draw a card. If you do, discard a card.

Any spell you cast that doesn't have the type creature will cause prowess to trigger. If a spell has multiple types, and one of those types is creature (such as an artifact creature), casting it won't cause prowess to trigger. Playing a land also won't cause prowess to trigger.

Once it triggers, prowess isn't connected to the spell that caused it to trigger. If that spell is countered, prowess will still resolve.

Prowess goes on the stack on top of the spell that caused it to trigger. It will resolve before that spell.

You draw a card and discard a card all while Jeskai Elder's ability is resolving. Nothing can happen between the two, and no player may choose to take actions.

Kathari Bomber

Flying
When Kathari Bomber deals combat damage to a player, put two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens onto the battlefield and sacrifice Kathari Bomber.
Unearth {3}{B}{R} ({3}{B}{R}: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

When Kathari Bomber’s triggered ability resolves, you create two Goblin tokens regardless of how much combat damage Kathari Bomber dealt to the player. You create the tokens even if you can’t sacrifice Kathari Bomber.

Flying
When Kathari Bomber deals combat damage to a player, create two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens and sacrifice Kathari Bomber.
Unearth {3}{B}{R} ({3}{B}{R}: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

"For us, a rope represents the ties that bind the kor. For you, it's more literal."

Kor Hookmaster

When Kor Hookmaster enters the battlefield, tap target creature an opponent controls. That creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.

Kor Hookmaster’s ability can target a creature that’s already tapped. It still won’t untap during its controller’s next untap step.

When Kor Hookmaster enters, tap target creature an opponent controls. That creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.

Goblins are eager to follow orders, especially when those orders involve stealing, hurting, annoying, eating, destroying, or swearing.

Krenko's Command

Put two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens onto the battlefield.

Create two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens.

"He displays a perverse charisma fueled by avarice. Highly dangerous. Recommend civil sanctions."
—Agmand Sarv, Azorius hussar

Krenko, Mob Boss

{T}: Put X 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens onto the battlefield, where X is the number of Goblins you control.

The ability counts each Goblin you control, including Krenko itself, not just the tokens it creates.

{T}: Create X 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens, where X is the number of Goblins you control.

Formerly oppressed by the polis of Meletis, leonin occasionally "mistake" their old enemies for game.

Leonin Snarecaster

When Leonin Snarecaster enters the battlefield, you may tap target creature.

When Leonin Snarecaster enters, you may tap target creature.

Lightning Angel

Though less well-known than its army of soldiers, the Boros Legion's mage-priests are as respected by the innocent as they are hated by the ghosts of the guilty.

Lightning Helix

Lightning Helix deals 3 damage to target creature or player and you gain 3 life.

If the chosen target is illegal when Lightning Helix tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't gain 3 life.

Lightning Helix deals 3 damage to any target and you gain 3 life.

His mission has become a grim pilgrimage, a tour of the Eldrazi-stricken outposts across Zendikar. But he marches on alone, stubborn as the daily dawn.

Lone Missionary

When Lone Missionary enters the battlefield, you gain 4 life.

When Lone Missionary enters, you gain 4 life.

The fatal flaw in every plan is the assumption that you know more than your enemy.
