What it does

Reach

At the beginning of your upkeep, if you control a creature with power 7 or greater, draw a card.

T: Add one mana of any color.

Rulings

One official ruling, as Wizards published it.

  • 2025-06-06

    Bugenhagen's second ability checks at the moment it would trigger to see if you control a creature with power 7 or greater. If you don't, the ability won't trigger at all. If it does trigger, the ability will check again as it tries to resolve. If you don't control a creature with power 7 or greater at that time, the ability won't resolve and none of its effects will happen.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of Bugenhagen, Wise Elder

2 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly — a printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall genuinely publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Bugenhagen, Wise Elder — a name search across every version, for the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only — no individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
