What it does
Each creature you control with a counter on it has ward 1. (Whenever it becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays {1}.)
T: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature that entered this turn.
Rulings
2 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2024-03-08
The effect of Cathedral Acolyte’s first ability applies to any creature you control with a counter on it, not just ones with +1/+1 counters.
- 2024-03-08
Once a creature’s ward ability has triggered, causing that creature to lose ward by removing Cathedral Acolyte won’t affect the ability. The appropriate player will still have to pay 1 or see their spell or ability countered.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

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.
