What it does

Lifelink

If a nontoken creature an opponent controls would die, instead exile that card and create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token.

2, Sacrifice another Vampire or Zombie: Put two +1/+1 counters on Kalitas.

Rulings

4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2016-01-22

    Abilities that trigger whenever a creature an opponent controls dies won't trigger unless that creature is a token (see below).

  • 2016-01-22

    If a creature token an opponent controls dies, it goes to that player's graveyard as normal before ceasing to exist.

  • 2016-01-22

    You can't sacrifice Kalitas to activate the last ability, even if it's somehow become a Zombie.

  • 2016-01-22

    If Kalitas dies at the same time as creatures your opponents control, those creature cards will be exiled and you'll get that many Zombies.

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

4 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 Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet — 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.
