Scavenger's Talent rulings

  • Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.

  • You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.

  • Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.

  • The creature card you return from your graveyard with Scavenger's Talent's level 3 class ability may be one of the nonland permanents you sacrificed.

  • Each Class has five abilities. The three in the major sections of its text box are class abilities. Class abilities can be static, activated, or triggered abilities. The other two are level abilities, one activated ability to advance the Class to level 2 and another to advance the Class to level 3.

  • Each Class starts with only the first of its three class abilities. As the first level ability resolves, the Class becomes level 2 and gains the second class ability. As the second level ability resolves, the Class becomes level 3 and gains the third class ability.

  • Gaining a level won't remove abilities that a Class had at a previous level.

  • Gaining a level is a normal activated ability. It uses the stack and can be responded to.

  • You can't activate the first level ability of a Class unless that Class is level 1. Similarly, you can't activate the second level ability of a Class unless that Class is level 2.

  • There's no restriction on how many Class permanents you can control, whether they're the same or different classes. Each Class permanent tracks its own level separately.

  • If you sacrifice a permanent as part of casting a spell or activating an ability, Scavenger's Talent's level 2 class ability will resolve before that spell or ability.

  • Scavenger's Talent's level 2 class ability will trigger when you sacrifice it. If you sacrifice other permanents at the same time, it triggers for them as well.

Scavenger's Talent keyword rules

Mill Rule 701.13

For a player to mill a number of cards, that player puts that many cards from the top of their library into their graveyard.

A player can’t mill a number of cards greater than the number of cards in their library. If given the choice to do so, they can’t choose to take that action. If instructed to do so, they mill as many as possible. Similarly, the player can’t pay a cost that includes milling a number of cards greater than the number of cards in their library.

An effect that refers to a milled card can find that card in the zone it moved to from the library, as long as that zone is a public zone.

If an ability checks information about a single milled card but more than one card was milled, that ability refers to each of the milled cards. If that ability asks for any information about the milled card, such as a characteristic or mana value, it gets multiple answers. If these answers are used to determine the value of a variable, the sum of the answers is used. If that ability performs any actions on “the” card, it performs that action on each milled card. If that ability performs any actions on “a” card, the controller of the ability chooses which card is affected.
