714. Saga Cards
714.1
Each Saga card has a striated text box containing a number of chapter symbols. Its illustration is vertically oriented on the right side of the card, and its type line is along the bottom of the card.
714.2
A chapter symbol is a keyword ability that represents a triggered ability referred to as a chapter ability.
714.3
Sagas use lore counters to track their progress.
714.4
If the number of lore counters on a Saga permanent with one or more chapter abilities is greater than or equal to its final chapter number, and it isn’t the source of a chapter ability that has triggered but not yet left the stack, that Saga’s controller sacrifices it. This state-based action doesn’t use the stack.
