Wild-Magic Sorcerer Rules Text & Legality

Creature — Orc Shaman Sorcerer — mana cost {3}{R}

The first spell you cast from exile each turn has cascade. (When you cast your first spell from exile, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order.)

""I warned you. Even I don't know what I'm capable of.""

Wild-Magic Sorcerer is legal in Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Pauper.

Wild-Magic Sorcerer Rulings

5 most recent
  • Jul 23, 2021 A spell's mana value is determined only by its mana cost. Ignore any alternative costs, additional costs, cost increases, or cost reductions. For example, Wild-Magic Sorcerer's mana value is always 4.
  • Jul 23, 2021 Cascade triggers when you cast the spell, meaning that it resolves before that spell. If you end up casting the exiled card, it will go on the stack above the spell with cascade.
  • Jul 23, 2021 Due to a recent rules change to cascade, not only do you stop exiling cards if you exile a nonland card with lesser mana value than the spell with cascade, but the resulting spell you cast must also have lesser mana value. Previously, in cases where a card's mana value differed from the resulting spell, such as with some modal double-faced cards or cards with an Adventure, you could cast a spell with a higher mana value than the exiled card.
  • Jul 23, 2021 However, if you cast a spell from exile and then later that turn Wild-Magic Sorcerer comes under your control, Wild-Mage Sorcerer won't give cascade to any other spell you cast from exile that turn.
  • Jul 23, 2021 If a spell with cascade is countered, the cascade ability will still resolve normally.
