• Sep 20, 2024 After an escaped spell resolves, it returns to its owner's graveyard if it's not a permanent spell. If it is a permanent spell, it enters and will return to its owner's graveyard if it dies later. It can escape again.
• Sep 20, 2024 Escape's permission doesn't change when you may cast the spell from your graveyard.
• Sep 20, 2024 If The Master of Keys is no longer on the battlefield when its second ability resolves, you'll still mill twice X cards.
• Sep 20, 2024 If a card has multiple abilities giving you permission to cast it, such as two escape abilities or an escape ability and a flashback ability, you choose which one to apply. The others have no effect.
• Sep 20, 2024 If a card has no mana cost, its escape cost is an unpayable cost, so you can't cast it for that cost.
