Carte Magic Strago and Relm

Strago and Relm 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

Sketch and Lore — {2}{R}, {T}: Target opponent exiles cards from the top of their library until they exile an instant, sorcery, or creature card. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost. If you cast a creature spell this way, it gains haste and "At the beginning of the end step, sacrifice this creature." Activate only as a sorcery.

How it works : Strago and Relm

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You cast the card while Strago and Relm's ability is resolving and still on the stack. You can't wait to play it later in the turn. Timing restrictions based on its types are ignored.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when playing it without paying its mana cost.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
