The Underworld Cookbook Rulings
4 most recent
- Nov 8, 2024 Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
- Nov 8, 2024 Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
- Nov 8, 2024 You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
- Jun 18, 2021 The Underworld Cookbook's last ability can target any creature card in your graveyard, not just one discarded with its first ability. For example, if a Granite Gargoyle you control dies after being dealt damage by Lightning Axe, you could use The Underworld Cookbook to make a delicious Gargoyle entrée.
