  • WotCNov 8, 2024

    If an opponent casts a spell that's both white and blue, Mindsparker's last ability triggers only once.

  • WotCNov 8, 2024

    Mindsparker's last 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.
