Zedruu Clones Spark Wilds MTG Talk Again
Because of recent formats and reprints, players refresh old tech. This brings attention to classic bounce and copy shenanigans.
What Happens When You Clone Zedruu the Greathearted in MTG? is a copy of the legendary enchantment with all abilities, costs, and targets unchanged.
These duplicate effects reset to their original values. Studies indicate copy effects track every printed characteristic, just without counters.
Why this trick matters in casual cube.
Because you replay powerful global effects each turn, games can swing fast. Research shows control and combo lists test this line for surprise resets.
That lets you redirect damage, reset armies, or copy extra turns once per activation.
Can you target a face with the copied ability?
Yes, the copy uses Zedruu’s text, so it can still target a player.
Does the clone have flash if the original lacks it?
No, the copy only keeps what the printed card already has.
