5 most recent
- Jan 24, 2020 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 the battlefield and will return to its owner’s graveyard if it dies later. Perhaps it will escape again—good underworld security is so hard to come by these days.
- Jan 24, 2020 Cling to Dust can target one of the five cards you’ll exile to pay its escape cost. In this case, the spell won’t resolve.
- Jan 24, 2020 Escape’s permission doesn’t change when you may cast the spell from your graveyard.
- Jan 24, 2020 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.
- Jan 24, 2020 If a card with escape is put into your graveyard during your turn, you’ll be able to cast it right away if it’s legal to do so, before an opponent can take any actions.
