    A spell's mana value is determined only by its mana cost. Ignore any alternative costs, additional costs, cost increases, or cost reductions.

  • WotCMar 20, 2026

    For spells on the stack with {X} in their mana costs, use the value chosen for X to determine the spell's mana value.

  • WotCMar 20, 2026

    Prismari Pianist's ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack without resolving.
