Carte Magic Mischievous Quanar

Mischievous Quanar 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

{3}{U}{U}: Turn this creature face down. Morph {1}{U}{U} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.) When this creature is turned face up, copy target instant or sorcery spell. You may choose new targets for that copy.

How it works : Mischievous Quanar

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    If a spell with split second is on the stack, you can still respond by turning this creature face up and targeting that spell with the trigger. This is because split second only stops players from casting spells or activating abilities, while turning a creature face up is a special action.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
