12 rulings for 4 cards

Baral, Chief of Compliance

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

The cost reduction applies only to generic mana in the cost of instant and sorcery spells you cast.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

A spell or ability counters a spell only if it specifically contains the word "counter" in its text. If a spell or ability you control causes all the targets of a spell to become illegal, that spell doesn't resolve but it's not countered.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

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

Kess, Dissident Mage

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

Once you begin to cast the card, losing control of Kess won't affect the spell. You can finish casting it as normal and it will be exiled if it would be put into your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions of the card you cast from your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

If a sorcery card is put into your graveyard during your main phase and the stack is empty, you have a chance to cast it before any player may attempt to remove that card from your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

If a spell cast this way is put into another zone after it resolves (perhaps because it had buyback), it's considered a new object. If that card later moves to your graveyard, it won't be exiled.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

If you cast a card from your graveyard using another permission (such as that of flashback), Kess's effect doesn't apply. You can cast another instant or sorcery card from your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

You must pay the costs to cast that card. If it has an alternative cost, you may cast it for that cost instead.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

If you cast one instant or sorcery card from your graveyard and then have a new Kess come under your control in the same turn, you may cast another instant or sorcery card from your graveyard that turn.

Magus of the Wheel

Wizards of the Coast 16 Mar 2018

If each player has fewer than seven cards in their library as Magus of the Wheel's ability resolves, the game ends in a draw.

Spellseeker

Wizards of the Coast 8 Jun 2018

If the mana cost of a card in your library includes {X}, X is considered to be 0.
