FrenchRaffinerie d'ÉtherL'invention d'Avaati Vya stabilisait l'Éther brut, mais même elle ne s'attendait pas à ce qu'elle puisse créer la vie.ArtefactSi vous deviez gagner au moins un {E} (marqueur « énergie »), vous gagnez deux fois ce nombre de {E} à la place.
{T} : Vous gagnez {E}, puis vous pouvez payer au moins un {E}. Si vous faites ainsi, créez un jeton de créature X/X noire Éthérien, X étant la quantité de {E} payée de cette manière.

GermanÄther-RaffinerieAvaati Vyas Erfindung stabilisierte rohen Äther, aber selbst sie hatte nicht geahnt, dass sie auch Leben schaffen würde.ArtefaktFalls du eine oder mehrere {E} (Energiemarken) erhalten würdest, erhältst du stattdessen doppelt so viele {E}.
{T}: Du erhältst {E}, dann kannst du eine oder mehrere {E} bezahlen. Falls du dies tust, erzeuge einen X/X schwarzen Äthergeborener-Kreaturenspielstein, wobei X gleich der Anzahl der auf diese Weise bezahlten {E} ist.

Japanese霊気の精錬所アヴァーティ・ヴィヤの発明は生の霊気を安定化させたが、生命まで生み出すとは彼女も知らなかった。アーティファクトあなたが1個以上の{E}(エネルギー・カウンター)を得るなら、代わりにその2倍の個数の{E}を得る。
{T}:{E}を得る。その後、1個以上の{E}を支払ってもよい。そうしたなら、黒のX/Xの霊基体・クリーチャー・トークン1体を生成する。Xはこれにより支払われた{E}の個数に等しい。

datetext
2024-06-07Energy counters are a kind of counter that a player may have. They're not associated with any specific permanents.
2024-06-07Energy counters aren't mana. They don't go away as steps, phases, and turns end, and effects that add mana "of any type" can't give you energy counters.
2024-06-07If a spell or ability with one or more targets states that you "may pay" some amount of {E}, and each permanent that it targets has become an illegal target, the spell or ability won't resolve. You can't pay any {E} even if you want to.
2024-06-07If an effect says you get one or more {E}, you get that many energy counters. To pay one or more {E}, you lose that many energy counters. You can't pay more energy counters than you have. Any effects that interact with counters a player gets, has, or loses can interact with energy counters.
2024-06-07If two or more effects attempt to modify how many {E} you get (or how many counters you would get), you choose the order to apply those effects, no matter who controls the sources of those effects.
2024-06-07If you control two Aether Refineries, the amount of {E} you get is four times the original number. Three Aether Refineries multiplies the original number by eight, and so on.
2024-06-07Keep track of how many energy counters each player has. Potential ways to track this include writing theme down on paper or using dice, but any method that is clear and mutually agreeable is fine. (At higher levels of tournament play, dice may not be allowed for tracking counters that players have.)
2024-06-07Some spells and abilities that give you {E} may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't get any {E}.
2024-06-07Some triggered abilities state that you "may pay" a certain amount of {E}. You can't pay that amount multiple times to multiply the effect. You simply choose whether or not to pay that amount of {E} as the ability resolves.
2024-06-07Some triggered abilities that state that you "may pay" a certain amount of {E} describe an effect that happens "If you do." In that case, no player may take actions to try to stop the ability's effect after you make your choice. If the payment is followed by the phrase "When you do," then you'll choose any targets for that reflexive triggered ability and put it on the stack before players can take actions.
2024-06-07{E} is the energy symbol. It represents one energy counter.
