Carte Magic Squee, the Immortal

Squee, the Immortal 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

You may cast this card from your graveyard or from exile.

Complete guide

Meet Squee, the Immortal, a legendary goblin who simply refuses to stay away from the action. This iconic card allows you to bypass the traditional finality of the graveyard and the isolation of exile, keeping your board presence constant. Whether he's been destroyed or banished, Squee is always ready for a redeployment to the battlefield.

Unending Availability

The core of Squee, the Immortal lies in his static ability that expands the zones from which he can be cast. Unlike most creatures that require being in your hand to enter the stack, Squee can be cast directly from your graveyard or from the exile zone. This makes him an exceptionally resilient threat against removal spells that rely on destroying or exiling permanents.

Following the Rules of Casting

It is important to remember that Squee's ability only changes where he can be cast from, not how or when. You must still pay his full mana cost of {1}{R}{R} (unless an effect allows otherwise). Furthermore, you must follow normal timing restrictions; since he is a creature without Flash, you can only cast him during your main phase when the stack is empty.

Interaction with Exile

One of the most powerful aspects of Squee is his interaction with exile. If an opponent uses a spell to exile Squee, he remains a valid card for you to cast on your next turn. Note that if Squee is exiled face-down (by certain effects), you cannot cast him because his characteristics are not visible to the game, and his ability cannot be identified.

Interaction examples

Managing the Board State

If your opponent casts a board wipe that destroys both Squee, the Immortal and Solemn Simulacrum, they both go to the graveyard. While the Golem stays there (allowing you to draw a card from its triggered ability), Squee sits in the graveyard as a playable resource. On your next turn, you can cast Squee directly from the graveyard to begin rebuilding your army immediately.

Tribal Synergies

Suppose you have Roaming Throne on the battlefield with 'Goblin' chosen as the creature type. While Squee, the Immortal is on the battlefield, he is a Goblin. If Squee is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, you can cast him again. When he enters the battlefield, if you have other Goblins with 'enters' triggers, Roaming Throne will cause those abilities to trigger an additional time, showing how Squee provides a repeatable way to trigger your Goblin-themed bonuses.
