Carte Magic Molten Disaster

Molten Disaster 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

Kicker {R} (You may pay an additional {R} as you cast this spell.) If this spell was kicked, it has split second. (As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.) Molten Disaster deals X damage to each creature without flying and each player.

How it works : Molten Disaster

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  6. #6· Wizards of the Coast

    If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  7. #7· Wizards of the Coast

    After a spell with split second resolves (or otherwise leaves the stack), players may again cast spells and activate abilities before the next object on the stack resolves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  8. #8· Wizards of the Coast

    Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  9. #9· Wizards of the Coast

    Players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  10. #10· Wizards of the Coast

    Split second doesn't stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  11. #11· Wizards of the Coast

    Casting a spell with split second won't affect spells and abilities that are already on the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  12. #12· Wizards of the Coast

    If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can't be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  13. #13· Wizards of the Coast

    If Molten Disaster was kicked, Molten Disaster has split second as long as it's on the stack.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
