Hour of Reckoning Rulings

5 most recent
  • Jan 12, 2024 Because convoke isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs.
  • Jan 12, 2024 If a creature you control has a mana ability with {T} in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for convoke.
  • Jan 12, 2024 Tapping a multicolored creature using convoke will pay for {1} or one mana of your choice of any of that creature's colors.
  • Jan 12, 2024 Tapping an untapped creature that's attacking or blocking to convoke a spell won't cause that creature to stop attacking or blocking.
  • Jan 12, 2024 When calculating a spell's total cost, include any alternative costs, additional costs, or anything else that increases or reduces the cost to cast the spell. Convoke applies after the total cost is calculated. Convoke doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value.
