What the codes mean

The small print at the bottom of the Coldsnap card (#70).

70

  • 70Collector number: this card's place in the set list. Main-set cards print it over the set's card count.

Cards from 1998 to mid-2014 print the collector number over the set's card count (like 90/383) next to the copyright line. They have no rarity letter, set code or language code: the set symbol and its colour show the set and rarity.

Rulings (3)

  1. 2006-07-15

    You can’t exile a card from your hand to pay for itself. At the time you would pay costs, that card is on the stack, not in your hand.

  2. 2006-07-15

    If you don’t have two cards of the right color in your hand, you can’t choose to cast the spell using the alternative cost.

  3. 2006-07-15

    You may pay the alternative cost rather than the card’s mana cost. Any additional costs are paid as normal.
