Whenever you cast a spell with cascade, put a +1/+1 counter on target artifact or creature.

If an effect instructs you to choose a creature type, you may choose Time Lord.
- WotCOct 13, 2023
Neither "Time" nor "Lord" are creature types. Some older cards were printed with the subtype "Lord," but all of those cards have updated Oracle card text that removed that type.
- WotCOct 13, 2023
Unlike other creature types in Magic that are each only one word, the two words "Time Lord" represent a single creature subtype. Time Lord is the only two-word creature type.

You choose the target for The First Doctor's last ability before revealing any cards for cascade.
