Beseech the Queen

Search your library for a card with converted mana cost less than or equal to the number of lands you control, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library.

A card with a monocolored hybrid mana symbol in its mana cost is each of the colors that appears in its mana cost, regardless of what mana was spent to cast it. Thus, Beseech the Queen is black even if you spend six red mana to cast it.

A card with monocolored hybrid mana symbols in its mana cost has a mana value equal to the highest possible cost it could be cast for. Its mana value never changes. Thus, Beseech the Queen has a mana value of 6, even if you spend {B}{B}{B} to cast it.

If a cost includes more than one monocolored hybrid mana symbol, you can choose a different way to pay for each symbol. For example, you can pay for Beseech the Queen by spending {B}{B}{B}, {2}{B}{B}, {4}{B}, or {6}.

If an effect reduces the cost to cast a spell by an amount of generic mana, it applies to a monocolored hybrid spell only if you’ve chosen a method of paying for it that includes generic mana.

({2/B} can be paid with any two mana or with {B}. This card's mana value is 6.)
Search your library for a card with mana value less than or equal to the number of lands you control, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.

The Patriarch is long dead, but his name still stains the lips of cultists.

Cabal Ritual

Add {B}{B}{B} to your mana pool.
Threshold — Add {B}{B}{B}{B}{B} to your mana pool instead if seven or more cards are in your graveyard.

Add {B}{B}{B}.

Conflux

Search your library for a white card, a blue card, a black card, a red card, and a green card. Reveal those cards and put them into your hand. Then shuffle your library.

You may find multicolored cards with Conflux. The white card you find, for example, can be any number of colors, as long as white is one of them. What colors it is won't impact what other cards you can find. For example, you may find a white-blue card as the white card and another white-blue card as the blue card.

Search your library for a white card, a blue card, a black card, a red card, and a green card. Reveal those cards, put them into your hand, then shuffle.

Dark Depths

Dark Depths enters the battlefield with ten ice counters on it.
{3}: Remove an ice counter from Dark Depths.
When Dark Depths has no ice counters on it, sacrifice it. If you do, put a legendary 20/20 black Avatar creature token with flying and indestructible named Marit Lage onto the battlefield.

Dark Depths doesn’t have a mana ability. It doesn’t tap for colorless mana.

If Dark Depths leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, you won’t be able to sacrifice it, so you won’t create Marit Lage.

The last ability of Dark Depths is a state trigger. It won’t trigger again while the ability is on the stack, but if the ability is countered and Dark Depths is still on the battlefield with no ice counters on it, it will trigger again immediately.

{3}: Remove an ice counter from Dark Depths.
When Dark Depths has no ice counters on it, sacrifice it. If you do, create Marit Lage, a legendary 20/20 black Avatar creature token with flying and indestructible.

Once Mirrodin's brightest hope. Now Phyrexia's cruel champion.

Glissa, the Traitor

First strike, deathtouch
Whenever a creature an opponent controls dies, you may return target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand.

If an artifact you own and a creature an opponent controls go to the graveyard at the same time, you may choose that artifact card as the target of Glissa, the Traitor’s ability (even if they’re the same card: an artifact creature you own that an opponent controlled).

Helvault

{1}, {T}: Exile target creature you control.
{7}, {T}: Exile target creature you don't control.
When Helvault is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, return all cards exiled with it to the battlefield under their owners' control.

Helvault’s first and third abilities are linked. Similarly, Helvault’s second and third abilities are linked. Only cards exiled as a result of Helvault’s first or second abilities will be returned to the battlefield by its third ability.

"An imperfection in the perfect world? We can't allow that."

Memnarch

{1}{U}{U}: Target permanent becomes an artifact in addition to its other types.
{3}{U}: Gain control of target artifact.

The effects of Memnarch’s abilities don’t end at end of turn, and they don’t end when Memnarch leaves the battlefield. Both effects last until the affected permanent leaves the battlefield.

You can use the first ability on a nonartifact permanent, wait for the ability to resolve, and then use the second ability on that permanent.

{1}{U}{U}: Target permanent becomes an artifact in addition to its other types. (This effect lasts indefinitely.)
{3}{U}: Gain control of target artifact. (This effect lasts indefinitely.)

Mind's Desire

Shuffle your library. Then exile the top card of your library. Until end of turn, you may play that card without paying its mana cost.
Storm (When you cast this spell, copy it for each spell cast before it this turn.)

If the card is not played by end of turn, it remains exiled until end of game.

A copy of a spell can be countered like any other spell, but it must be countered individually. Countering a spell with storm won't affect the copies.

Spells cast from zones other than a player's hand and spells that were countered are counted by the storm ability.

The copies are put directly onto the stack. They aren't cast and won't be counted by other spells with storm cast later in the turn.

The triggered ability that creates the copies can itself be countered by anything that can counter a triggered ability. If it is countered, no copies will be put onto the stack.

Momir Vig, Simic Visionary

Whenever you cast a green creature spell, you may search your library for a creature card and reveal it. If you do, shuffle your library and put that card on top of it.
Whenever you cast a blue creature spell, reveal the top card of your library. If it's a creature card, put that card into your hand.

If you cast a green and blue creature spell, both abilities will trigger. The abilities may be stacked so that when they resolve, you search your library for a creature card, put it on top of your library, and then put that card into your hand. The abilities may also be stacked in the other order, of course.

Whenever you cast a green creature spell, you may search your library for a creature card, reveal it, then shuffle and put that card on top.
Whenever you cast a blue creature spell, reveal the top card of your library. If it's a creature card, put that card into your hand.

Lands ravaged, cities in ruins, so many lives sacrificed, and yet there was no other word for it but victory.

Near-Death Experience

At the beginning of your upkeep, if you have exactly 1 life, you win the game.

In a Two-Headed Giant game, anything that cares about your life total checks your team’s life total. You’ll win the game if your team has exactly 1 life.

This ability has an “intervening ‘if’ clause.” That means (1) the ability triggers only if you have exactly 1 life as your upkeep begins, and (2) the ability does nothing if your life total is anything other than 1 by the time it resolves.

For his family, Barrin made a funeral pyre of Tolaria.

Obliterate

Obliterate can't be countered.
Destroy all artifacts, creatures, and lands. They can't be regenerated.

Counterspells can be cast that target it, but when they resolve they simply don’t counter it since it can’t be countered.

This spell can't be countered.
Destroy all artifacts, creatures, and lands. They can't be regenerated.

Phyrexian Processor

As Phyrexian Processor enters the battlefield, pay any amount of life.
{4}, {T}: Put an X/X black Minion creature token onto the battlefield, where X is the life paid as Phyrexian Processor entered the battlefield.

You can pay 0 life if you want, but it's not useful most of the time.

As Phyrexian Processor enters, pay any amount of life.
{4}, {T}: Create an X/X black Phyrexian Minion creature token, where X is the life paid as Phyrexian Processor entered.

Tolaria West

Tolaria West enters the battlefield tapped.
{T}: Add {U} to your mana pool.
Transmute {1}{U}{U} ({1}{U}{U}, Discard this card: Search your library for a card with converted mana cost 0, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. Transmute only as a sorcery.)

Cards with mana cost {0} (like Pact of Negation) and cards with no mana cost (like Ancestral Vision and Tolaria West itself) have mana value 0.

Cards with mana cost {X}, {X}{X}, or {X}{X}{X} have mana value 0.

Tolaria West enters tapped.
{T}: Add {U}.
Transmute {1}{U}{U} ({1}{U}{U}, Discard this card: Search your library for a card with mana value 0, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle. Transmute only as a sorcery.)

Umezawa's Jitte

Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage, put two charge counters on Umezawa's Jitte.
Remove a charge counter from Umezawa's Jitte: Choose one —
• Equipped creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn.
• Target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn.
• You gain 2 life.
Equip {2}

If the Jitte is moved after the “+2/+2” mode is announced but before it resolves, the bonus is given to the creature that is equipped when the ability resolves.

If the Jitte leaves the battlefield after the “+2/+2” mode is announced but before it resolves, the bonus is given to the creature that was most recently equipped once the ability resolves.

If the “target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn” mode is chosen, the target creature must also be announced.

The ability can be used any time Umezawa’s Jitte’s controller has priority — only the “target creature” choice has additional requirements. Choosing the “Equipped creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn” mode does nothing if the Jitte isn’t equipped to a creature when the ability resolves.

Umezawa’s Jitte’s activated ability generates a modal choice. The choice is made when the ability is activated.

Unmask

You may exile a black card from your hand rather than pay Unmask's mana cost.
Target player reveals his or her hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card.

If you target yourself with this spell, you must reveal your entire hand to the other players just as any other player would.

You may exile a black card from your hand rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
Target player reveals their hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card.
