Blightcaster's effect doesn't trigger off of token supports. Tested with treasures and servos.

It used to work with those. Also, considering the wording it should: "when a support you control enters the battlefield... "

    As have I. It makes the card way less useful, which is sad because it has a fairly unique ability.

    Is this an intentional nerf?

    If it's an intentional change, then the wording should have been changed to "when you cast a support..." instead of "when a support you control enters the battlefield..."

    Please fix this, was a fun card that rewarded unique deckbuilding.  Something more than ‘Big monster smash!’

    I am particularly fixated on wording and I was just about to contradict you on this one... I remember the wording used to be incorrect and it used to bug me every single time... Except you are RIGHT!

    Look on Mtgpq.info for the old wording... They actually changed the wrong text to match the previous implementation but then they also changed the implementation so it's wrong all over again.

    Oh Oktagon, why you guys being silly? It's like you don't know rather basic mtg terminology. 🙄

    It probably has something to do with the problems token have with demolish and similar cards.

    Why does the text on Blightcaster listed at mtgpq.info not match the card in the game?
