Transcript for I’ll Be the Judge #1 – Rishkar’s Expertise
Mike wants to know what happens if we have an 8/8 V G and we cast RE as the only card in our hand
when we’ve drawn our eight cards can we play one of them for free?
Well yes Mike, you can! You follow the instructions on the card in the order they are written. So first you would draw your eight cards, then the spell asks you to play one of them with mana cost five or less, for free.
So not only does that work, it works really well!
Thanks Chris!
We’re still fleshing out this new feature, but if you would like to ask a question, you can start by following Fetchland and / or Top 8 Magic on Facebook and Instagram; or Chris, on Twitter.
