You may exile two green cards from your hand rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Allosaurus Rider's power and toughness are each equal to 1 plus the number of lands you control.

    If you don’t have two cards of the right color in your hand, you can’t choose to cast the spell using the alternative cost.

  • WotCJul 15, 2006

    Paying the alternative cost doesn’t change when you can cast the spell. A creature spell you cast this way, for example, can still only be cast during your main phase while the stack is empty.

  • WotCJul 15, 2006

    You can’t exile a card from your hand to pay for itself. At the time you would pay costs, that card is on the stack, not in your hand.

  • WotCJul 15, 2006

    You may pay the alternative cost rather than the card’s mana cost. Any additional costs are paid as normal.
