Diligent Excavator Rules Text & Legality
Diligent Excavator
Whenever you cast a historic spell, target player mills two cards. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
Archaeologists don't just dig in the dirt. They excavate time, scraping off the years grain by grain.
Diligent Excavator is legal in Pioneer, Modern, Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard and Pauper.

Diligent Excavator Rulings
- Apr 27, 2018
A card, spell, or permanent is historic if it has the legendary supertype, the artifact card type, or the Saga subtype. Having two of those qualities doesn’t make an object more historic than another or provide an additional bonus—an object either is historic or it isn’t.
- Apr 27, 2018
An ability that triggers “whenever you cast a historic spell” doesn’t trigger if a historic card is put onto the battlefield without being cast.
- Apr 27, 2018
Lands are never cast, so abilities that trigger “whenever you cast a historic spell” won’t trigger if you play a legendary land. They also won’t trigger if a card on the battlefield transforms into a legendary land, as the Ixalan and Rivals of Ixalan double-faced cards do.
- Apr 27, 2018
Some abilities trigger “whenever you cast a historic spell.” Such an ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.
