Carte Magic Elemental Mascot

Elemental Mascot is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.

01

Official card text

Flying, vigilance Opus — Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, this creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn. If five or more mana was spent to cast that spell, exile the top card of your library. You may play that card until the end of your next turn.

How it works : Elemental Mascot

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You pay all costs and follow all timing rules for cards played this way. For example, if the exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty and only if you have an available land play remaining.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    An opus ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered or otherwise leaves the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
