Octomancer Rules Text & Legality
View on Scryfall ↗Gift an Octopus (You may promise an opponent a gift as you cast this spell. If you do, when it enters, they create an 8/8 blue Octopus creature token.)
At the beginning of each end step, create a token that's a copy of target creature token that entered the battlefield this turn.
Octomancer is legal in Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Pauper.
Octomancer Rulings
- Jul 26, 2024 Any "enters" abilities of the copied token will trigger when the token enters. Any "as [this permanent] enters" or "[this permanent] enters with" abilities of the copied token will also work.
- Jul 26, 2024 As an additional cost to cast a spell with gift, you can promise the listed gift to an opponent. That opponent is chosen as part of that additional cost. The gift isn't given at this time; rather, it's given at a later time based on whether or not the spell is a permanent spell.
- Jul 26, 2024 For instants and sorceries with gift, the gift is given to the appropriate opponent as part of the resolution of the spell. This happens before any of the spell's other effects would take place.
- Jul 26, 2024 For permanent spells with gift, an ability triggers when that permanent enters if the gift was promised. When that ability resolves, the gift is given to the appropriate opponent.
- Jul 26, 2024 If a spell for which the gift was promised is countered, doesn't resolve (perhaps because all of its targets are illegal), or is otherwise removed from the stack, the gift won't be given. None of its other effects will happen either.
