Zimone, All-Questioning

Legendary Creature — Human Wizard

Zimone wants a deck that makes an army of small creatures and attacks with all of them. It also works in a deck built around Humans, Legends Matter or Wizards.

At the beginning of your end step, if a land entered the battlefield under your control this turn and you control a prime number of lands, create Primo, the Indivisible, a legendary 0/0 green and blue Fractal creature token, then put that many +1/+1 counters on it. (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, and 31 are prime numbers.)

Wizards of the Coast 20 Sep 2024

If a land hasn't entered the battlefield under your control during your turn by the time your end step begins, Zimone's ability won't trigger at all. You won't be able to put a land onto the battlefield under your control during your end step in time to have the ability trigger.

Wizards of the Coast 20 Sep 2024

If you don't control a prime number of lands as Zimone's ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve.

Wizards of the Coast 20 Sep 2024

In case you do end up with more than 31 lands, the remaining prime numbers below 100 are 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, and 97.

Wizards of the Coast 20 Sep 2024

There are a few more prime numbers, but we couldn't fit them all on the card. (Some of them would take up more room than we have in the text box by themselves, but you probably won't control that many lands.)

Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryUGPlayers write colors as letters: U for blue, G for green. Blue is U because B was already taken by black.TokensToken decks fill the battlefield with small creatures made by their cards, then attack with all of them or make them all bigger at once. A token is a creature (or other object) that a card creates, not a card from your deck.Open the Tokens pageToken EngineMakes tokens again and again rather than once. A token is a creature or other permanent created by a card, with no card of its own. Something that makes one token gives you a body; something that makes them every turn gives you a board you can keep rebuilding after it is cleared.
