Dawn's Truce

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

Some instant or sorcery spells require alternative or additional targets if the gift was promised. You ignore these targeting requirements if the gifts aren't promised for those spells. On the other hand, you can promise a gift for a permanent spell even if you won't be able to choose targets for an enters ability of that permanent once the spell resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

In the main set, there are four different kinds of gifts. "Gift a Food" causes the chosen opponent to create a Food token, while "Gift a Treasure" causes the chosen opponent to create a Treasure token. "Gift a card" causes them to draw a card, and "Gift a tapped Fish" causes them to create a tapped 1/1 blue Fish creature token. The Commander decks contain two more kinds of gifts: "Gift an Octopus," which causes the chosen opponent to create an 8/8 blue Octopus creature token, and "Gift an extra turn," which causes them to take an extra turn after the current turn ends.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

If a spell for which the gift was promised is countered, doesn't resolve (perhaps because all of its targets are illegal), or is otherwise removed from the stack, the gift won't be given. None of its other effects will happen either.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

For permanent spells with gift, an ability triggers when that permanent enters if the gift was promised. When that ability resolves, the gift is given to the appropriate opponent.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

You can't pay a gift cost more than once.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

For instants and sorceries with gift, the gift is given to the appropriate opponent as part of the resolution of the spell. This happens before any of the spell's other effects would take place.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

If you copy a spell for which the gift was promised, the gift was also promised to the same opponent for the copy. If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent that's already on the battlefield, the gift isn't promised for that new permanent, even if it was promised for the original.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Jul 2024

As an additional cost to cast a spell with gift, you can promise the listed gift to an opponent. That opponent is chosen as part of that additional cost. The gift isn't given at this time; rather, it's given at a later time based on whether or not the spell is a permanent spell.

Demonic Counsel

Wizards of the Coast 20 Sep 2024

In the case where Demonic Counsel's delirium ability allows you to search your library for any card, you won't have to reveal that card. (You could, but as your demonic counsel, I wouldn't advise it.)

Freed from the Real

Wizards of the Coast 16 Mar 2018

Only the player who controls Freed from the Real can activate its abilities. This might not be the controller of the enchanted creature.

Swan Song

Wizards of the Coast 15 Sep 2013

Swan Song can target a spell that can't be countered. That spell won't be countered when Swan Song resolves, but its controller will get a Bird token.

Tempt with Immortality

Wizards of the Coast 17 Oct 2013

Your opponents decide in turn order whether or not they accept the offer, starting with the opponent on your left. Each opponent will know the decisions of previous opponents in turn order when making their decision.

Wizards of the Coast 17 Oct 2013

None of the creature cards in graveyards are targeted. The cards are chosen as Tempt with Immortality resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 17 Oct 2013

After each opponent has decided, the effect happens simultaneously for each one who accepted the offer. Then, the effect happens again for you a number of times equal to the number of opponents who accepted.

Unbreakable Formation

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

If an effect copies a spell with an addendum ability while it's on the stack, the copy wasn't cast at all, so you won't get the addendum bonus.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

Addendum abilities of instant spells apply while the spell is resolving, not immediately after casting it. If the spell is countered, you don't get the addendum bonus.

Wizards of the Coast 25 Jan 2019

Unbreakable Formation affects only creatures you control at the time it resolves. Creatures you begin to control later in the turn won't gain indestructible or vigilance and they won't get a +1/+1 counter.

Underworld Breach

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If you cast a spell with its escape permission, you can't choose to apply any other alternative costs or to cast it without paying its mana cost. If it has any additional costs, you must pay those.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

After an escaped spell resolves, it returns to its owner's graveyard if it's not a permanent spell. If it is a permanent spell, it enters the battlefield and will return to its owner's graveyard if it dies later. Perhaps it will escape again—good underworld security is so hard to come by these days.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If you're casting an adventurer card or split card with escape, you choose how you wish to cast it, then pay the appropriate cost (for the Adventure, the creature, or the half of the split card you chose) plus exiling three cards.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

Escape's permission doesn't change when you may cast the spell from your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a card has no mana cost, its escape cost is an unpayable cost, so you can't cast it for that cost.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a card with escape is put into your graveyard during your turn, you'll be able to cast it right away if it's legal to do so, before an opponent can take any actions.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a card has multiple abilities giving you permission to cast it, such as two escape abilities or an escape ability and a flashback ability, you choose which one to apply. The others have no effect.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a spell you're casting with escape has an additional cost of discarding cards or sacrificing permanents, you may exile cards discarded or sacrificed this way to pay that part of its escape cost.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an escape cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was and no matter whether an alternative cost was paid.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

Once you begin casting a spell with escape, it immediately moves to the stack. Players can't take any other actions until you're done casting the spell.
