Rulings (7)

  1. 2004-10-04

    The lower cost is not optional like with some other cost reducers.

  2. 2004-10-04

    The generic X cost is still considered generic even if there is a requirement that a specific color be used for it. For example, “only black mana can be spent this way”. This distinction is important for effects which reduce the generic portion of a spell’s cost.

  3. 2004-10-04

    The effect is cumulative.

  4. 2004-10-04

    If a spell is both red and white, you pay one generic mana less, not two generic mana less.

  5. 2004-10-04

    If this card is sacrificed to pay part of a spell’s cost, the cost reduction still applies.

  6. 2004-10-04

    This can lower the cost to zero, but not below zero.

  7. 2004-10-04

    Can never affect the colored part of the cost.
