Rulings
  • WotCFeb 9, 2017

    If you cast a nonartifact spell that requires you to sacrifice a permanent as an additional cost, you may tap that permanent (if it's an artifact) for the spell's improvise ability before you sacrifice it to pay that cost.

  • WotCFeb 9, 2017

    Multiple instances of improvise are redundant.
