Crypt Ghast

Extort (Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay {W/B}. If you do, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain that much life.)

Whenever you tap a Swamp for mana, add an additional {B}.

Many noticed the dark energy emanating from the crypt. None could fathom the twisted spirit controlling it.

Crypt Ghast is legal in Pioneer, Modern, Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard and Pauper.

Crypt Ghast Rulings

  • Jan 12, 2024

    The amount of life you gain from extort is based on the total amount of life lost, not necessarily the number of opponents you have. For example, if your opponent's life total can't change (perhaps because that player controls Platinum Emperion), you won't gain any life.

  • Jan 12, 2024

    The extort ability doesn't target any player.

  • Jan 12, 2024

    The extort ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. The ability resolves even if that spell is countered.

  • Jan 12, 2024

    You may pay {W/B} a maximum of one time for each extort triggered ability. You decide whether to pay when the ability resolves.
