Primal Plasma Rules Text & Legality

Primal Plasma

As this creature enters, it becomes your choice of a 3/3 creature, a 2/2 creature with flying, or a 1/6 creature with defender.

Tocasia brushed the gears and cogs from the table. There, before two wide-eyed brothers, she began a lesson on raw elemental magic.

Primal Plasma is legal in Modern, Legacy, Commander and Pauper, and not legal in Standard and Pioneer.

Primal Plasma Rulings

  • Mar 19, 2021

    If an object enters the battlefield as a copy of Primal Plasma, it copies the values determined by its enters-the-battlefield replacement effect, but its power and toughness are determined by the copy's own enters-the-battlefield replacement effect. This can cause you to have a 3/3 creature with flying, or a 1/6 creature with flying and defender, for example.
