Legalities

Keywords 5

  • You may cast it any time you could cast an instant.

  • It can only be blocked by creatures with flying or reach.

  • A spell you can cast almost whenever you have priority.

  • Cast only on your turn, main phase, empty stack (unless an effect says otherwise).

  • A card's mana cost is printed in its top-right corner: the mana you must gather to cast it. Often a mix of a specific color and “generic” mana (payable with anything), like below.
