Welcoming Vampire card art

Welcoming Vampire

Creature — Vampire MV 3

Tracked across real Commander games played through TurnZero HQ.

What it does

Flying

Whenever one or more other creatures you control with power 2 or less enter, draw a card. This ability triggers only once each turn.

Rulings

2 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2021-11-19

    Welcoming Vampire's ability checks the power of the other creatures only as they enter the battlefield. If one of those creatures has power 2 or less, the ability will trigger. Once the ability triggers, raising that creature's power above 2 won't affect that ability. Similarly, reducing a creature's power to 2 or less after it enters the battlefield won't cause the ability to trigger.

  • 2021-11-19

    If creatures enter the battlefield with +1/+1 counters or a continuous effect such as that of Wedding Festivity will apply to the creatures on the battlefield, those effects apply when checking to see if Welcoming Vampire's ability will trigger.

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

Every version of Welcoming Vampire

9 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 Welcoming Vampire — 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.
