What it does
Flash
If a creature an opponent controls would die, exile it instead. When you do, create a 2/2 green Wolf creature token.
Rulings
3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2026-06-29
While Head of the Hunt is on the battlefield, creatures your opponents control are exiled instead of dying, and abilities that would trigger when those creatures die won't trigger.
- 2026-06-29
Cards that would go to your opponent's graveyard for reasons other than dying, such as being discarded or milled, will still go to the graveyard and will not be exiled instead.
- 2026-06-29
If Head of the Hunt would leave the battlefield at the same time as one or more creatures an opponent controls would die, those creatures will still be exiled.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Head of the Hunt. It runs a name search across every version, which covers 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.
