Headsplitter

{1}{R}Artifact — Equipment

Equipped creature gets +1/+0.

Equip {2} ({2}: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery.)

Official rulings

  1. The Assassin token that you create enters the battlefield as a 1/1 creature. Any abilities that trigger when a creature with a certain power enters the battlefield will see the token enter as a 1/1 creature. Static abilities that affect the Assassin's power and toughness may change this. (2024-07-05)
  2. No player may take any actions between the time you create the Assassin token and the time Headsplitter becomes attached to it. (2024-07-05)
  3. If the triggered ability causes two Assassins to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), Headsplitter becomes attached to one of them. (2024-07-05)
