Rulings
  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it’s legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you’re paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card’s type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

  • WotCMar 19, 2021

    “Flashback [cost]” means “You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost” and “If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack.”

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Alters all occurrences of the chosen word in the text box and the type line of the given card.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Can target a card with no appropriate words on it, or even one with no words at all.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Changing the text of a spell will not allow you to change the targets of the spell because the targets were chosen when the spell was cast. The text change will (probably) cause it to be countered since the targets will be illegal.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    If you change the text of a spell which is to become a permanent, the permanent will retain the text change until the effect wears off.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    It can’t change a word to the same word. It must be a different word.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    It only changes what is printed on the card (or set on a token when it was created or set by a copy effect). It will not change any effects that are on the permanent.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    You choose the words to change on resolution.
