Lore & Trivia
Card Lore
Regenerate is a former evergreen keyword action removed after Oath of the Gatewatch that served as a replacement effect to prevent permanent destruction by tapping it and removing damage. It was eventually replaced by indestructible mechanics in later sets due to design issues and the ubiquity of cards that prevented regeneration.
Replacement effect that prevented destruction by tapping, removing damage, and removing from combatPrimary color green, secondary black, tertiary white, but was retired from premier sets after Oath of the GatewatchReplaced by indestructible as the primary protective mechanic starting in Shadows over InnistradDesigned by Richard Garfield for Alpha and underwent major rules changes in Sixth EditionHad 152 cards preventing regeneration versus 230 cards using it, making it frequently invalidated

Did You Know?
💡 Players must apply the regenerate effect before the permanent would die. If a creature is in combat, the last chance to do this is during the declare blockers step, after blockers are declared and before damage. This is referred to as 'giving the creature a regeneration shield'.
💡 Up until The Dark, a creature that could regenerate itself would say 'Regenerates'.
💡 Terror from Limited Edition Alpha is the only instance of the word 'regeneration' appearing in the rules text.
💡 Both Regenerate and Regeneration would provide regeneration effects. However, the Universes Beyond card Time Lord Regeneration does not.
💡 Buried cards couldn't be regenerated.
💡 Four cards - Soldevi Sentry, Debt of Loyalty, Skeleton Scavengers and Matopi Golem - have secondary effects tied to their regeneration effect. Such effects were intended to only occur when regeneration occurs, and as such are the only cards with 'regenerates this way'. Debt of Loyalty is the most confusing as the rules text does not indicate that and reads like a three-mana Mind Control.
💡 The fear, lifelink, manifest dread, regenerate, and vigilance keywords are the only keywords with a card of the exact name: Fear, Lifelink, Manifest Dread, Regenerate, and Vigilance respectively.
