Enchères illicites {3}{R}{R}

Sorcery

Each player may bid life for control of target creature. You start the bidding with a bid of 0. In turn order, each player may top the high bid. The bidding ends if the high bid stands. The high bidder loses life equal to the high bid and gains control of the creature. (This effect lasts indefinitely.)

Notes and Rules Information for Enchères illicites:
  • Only the English version of a Magic card receives Oracle updates and errata. View this card in English. (Scryfall note)
  • This is a life loss and not a life payment so you can bid more life than you have. (2004-10-04)
