Counterbalance

Wizards of the Coast 18 Apr 2017

If an opponent casts half of a split card (for example, Hit), it won't be countered if you reveal that same split card. The mana value of a split card is determined by the combined mana cost of its two halves, but the mana value of Hit is determined using only that half's mana cost.

Wizards of the Coast 15 Jul 2006

If an opponent casts a spell with X in its mana cost, the mana value of that spell takes the value of X into account. If you reveal a card with X in its mana cost, X is 0. For example, if your opponent casts Blaze with X=1, Counterbalance will counter that spell if you reveal a card with mana value 2, but it won't counter that spell if you reveal a Blaze of your own.

Gitaxian Probe

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

The targeted player may have no cards in their hand. You'll still draw a card.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

If you're at 1 life or less, you can't pay 2 life.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

A card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its mana cost is each color that appears in that mana cost, regardless of how that cost may have been paid.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

To calculate the mana value of a card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, count each Phyrexian mana symbol as 1.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

As you cast a spell or activate an activated ability with one or more Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, you choose how to pay for each Phyrexian mana symbol at the same time you would choose modes or choose a value for X.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

Phyrexian mana is not a new color. Players can't produce Phyrexian mana.

Otherworldly Gaze

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

"Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard if the resulting spell is an instant or sorcery spell by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.

Also Printed in Other Drops

Some of these cards came in other Secret Lair drops too, each with its own art.
