Railway Brawler Rulings
- Apr 12, 2024 Exiling a card using its plot ability is a special action. Once you announce you’re taking that action, no other player can respond by trying to remove that card from your hand.
- Apr 12, 2024 If a plotted card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
- Apr 12, 2024 If you’re casting a plotted card from exile without paying its mana cost, you can’t choose to cast it for any other alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the plotted card has any mandatory additional costs, those must still be paid to cast the spell.
- Apr 12, 2024 Plot abilities are written “Plot [cost],” which means “Any time you have priority during your main phase while the stack is empty, you may pay [cost] and exile this card from your hand. It becomes plotted.”
- Apr 12, 2024 The value of X is determined as Railway Brawler’s triggered ability resolves.
