If an effect says you get one or more
, you get that many energy counters. To pay one or more
, you lose that many energy counters. You can’t pay more energy counters than you have. Any effects that interact with counters a player gets, has, or loses can interact with energy counters.

Keep track of how many energy counters each player has. Potential ways to track this include writing them down on paper or using dice, but any method that is clear and mutually agreeable is fine. (At higher levels of tournament play, dice may not be allowed for tracking counters that players have.)

Some triggered abilities that state that you “may pay” a certain amount of
describe an effect that happens “If you do.” In that case, no player may take actions to try to stop the ability’s effect after you make your choice. If the payment is followed by the phrase “When you do,” then you’ll choose any targets for that reflexive triggered ability and put it on the stack before players can take actions.
2024-03-08
If a spell or ability with one or more targets states that you “may pay” some amount of
, and each permanent that it targets has become an illegal target, the spell or ability won’t resolve. You can’t pay any
even if you want to.
