About Savai Thundermane

Savai Thundermane, Creature — elemental cat, designed by Svetlin Velinov first released in Apr, 2020 in the set Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.21.

This card would be beneficial in a cycling deck in Magic: the Gathering, where players frequently cycle through their cards to trigger its ability and gain value by dealing damage and gaining life. While Savai Thundermane offers a solid effect, there are potentially better cards like Zenith Flare, which can deal a larger amount of damage and gain life based on the number of cards cycled. However, Savai Thundermane could still see play in a cycling-focused deck as a supplemental card for additional value and flexibility.

Rules

04/17/20

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Savai Thundermane’s reflexive triggered ability tries to resolve, the ability won’t resolve. You won’t gain 2 life.

04/17/20

Some cards with cycling have an ability that triggers when you cycle them, and some cards have an ability that triggers whenever you cycle any card. These triggered abilities resolve before you draw from the cycling ability.

04/17/20

While resolving Savai Thundermane’s triggered ability, you can’t pay more than once to have it deal more damage or gain more life.

04/17/20

You can cycle a card even if it has a triggered ability from cycling that won’t have a legal target. This is because the cycling ability and the triggered ability are separate. This also means that if either ability is countered (with Disallow, for example), the other ability will still resolve.
