    Spectacle Mage’s second ability can’t reduce the colored mana requirements in spells you cast.

  2. 2021-04-16

    Spectacle Mage’s second ability only looks at the mana value of a spell, not the cost you’re paying for it. For example, if you control two Spectacle Mages and cast a sorcery with mana cost four generic manaone blue mana, the cost will be reduced to two generic manaone blue mana.

  3. 2021-04-16

    If there is an X generic mana in the spell’s mana cost, use the chosen value for X to determine its mana value. For example, if you cast a sorcery with mana cost X generic manaone blue mana and choose 4 for X, its mana value is 5.
