Official card text

Flying You may pay {W}{U}{B}{R}{G} rather than pay the mana cost for spells you cast.

How it works : Jodah, Archmage Eternal

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Jodah's ability is an alternative cost to cast a spell. You can't combine this with other alternative costs, such as flashback. You can pay additional costs, such as kicker, in addition to this alternative cost.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If you apply Jodah's alternative cost to a spell with {X} in its mana cost, X is 0.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If you cast a spell for which mana may be spent as though it were mana of any color, you may cast it for Jodah's alternative cost and still spend mana as though it were mana of any color.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
