Ixidor had only to imagine their ruin and Akroma made it so.

Akroma's Vengeance

Cycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with cycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.

Destroy all artifacts, creatures, and enchantments.
Cycling {3} ({3}, Discard this card: Draw a card.)

Taj-Nar, throne of Raksha Golden Cub, destined leader of the leonin prides.

Ancient Den

"Murder of the living is tragic, but murder of the idea is unforgivable."
—Janus, speaker of the synod

Annul

Counter target artifact or enchantment spell.

Arcbound Ravager

If this creature gets enough -1/-1 counters put on it to cause its toughness to be 0 or less (or the damage marked on it to be lethal), modular will put a number of +1/+1 counters on the target artifact creature equal to the number of +1/+1 counters on this creature before it left the battlefield.

Sacrifice an artifact: Put a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Ravager.
Modular 1 (This creature enters with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it dies, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.)

Arcbound Worker

Modular 1 (This creature enters with a +1/+1 counter on it. When it dies, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature.)

"The hum of the universe is never off-key."
—Mystic elder

Astral Slide

If a player cycles a card during the end step, the creature that is exiled won't come back until the end of the next turn.

If a face-down card is exiled, it turns face-up and remains face-up when it returns to the battlefield. This does not trigger any abilities that would trigger on it being turned face-up.

Whenever a player cycles a card, you may exile target creature. If you do, return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.

Blinkmoth Nexus

A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn't matter how long the permanent has been a creature.

Blinkmoth Nexus can be the target of its last ability after activating its middle ability. Activating it after it has blocked a creature won't remove it from combat or stop it from dealing and being dealt combat damage.

{T}: Add {C}.
{1}: Blinkmoth Nexus becomes a 1/1 Blinkmoth artifact creature with flying until end of turn. It's still a land.
{1}, {T}: Target Blinkmoth creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.

Chrome Mox

If no card is imprinted on Chrome Mox, it can't add mana. It can never add {C}, even if the imprinted card has a colorless mana symbol in its mana cost.

If you imprinted a multicolored card, you choose one of that card's colors each time you tap Chrome Mox for mana.

Imprint — When Chrome Mox enters, you may exile a nonartifact, nonland card from your hand.
{T}: Add one mana of any of the exiled card's colors.

Circle of Protection: Red

A source of damage is a permanent, a spell on the stack (including one that creates a permanent), or any object referred to by an object on the stack. A source doesn’t need to be capable of dealing damage to be a legal choice.

Can be used even when there is no damage to prevent. It prevents the next damage (if any) from the source this turn.

{1}: The next time a red source of your choice would deal damage to you this turn, prevent that damage.

"He watches from above. He watches from below. He watches from within."
—Inscription on Tel-Jilad, the Tree of Tales

Cloudpost

Cloudpost enters tapped.
{T}: Add {C} for each Locus on the battlefield.

Condescend

You must be able to target another spell to cast Condescend. Condescend can’t target itself.

You scry 2 even if the spell’s controller pays {X}.

Counter target spell unless its controller pays {X}. Scry 2. (Look at the top two cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom and the rest on top in any order.)

Cranial Plating

Cranial Plating is counted by its own ability, so it gives at least +1/+0.

Cranial Plating's first activated ability is similar to an equip ability, but it's not an equip ability. Most importantly, it can be activated any time you could cast an instant, even during another player's turn.

Equipped creature gets +1/+0 for each artifact you control.
{B}{B}: Attach Cranial Plating to target creature you control.
Equip {1}

Panopticon, forge of the Darksteel Eye, home of Mirrodin's keeper.

Darksteel Citadel

Although Darksteel Citadel is an artifact, it can't be cast as a spell. Playing it follows the normal rules for playing a land.

Decree of Justice

A mana cost of {X}{X} means that you pay twice X. If you want X to be 3, you pay {8}{W}{W} to cast Decree of Justice.

The cycling ability and the triggered ability are separate. If the triggered ability doesn't resolve (because, for example, it has been countered, or all of its targets have become illegal), the cycling ability will still resolve, and you'll draw a card.

When you cycle this card, first the cycling ability goes on the stack, then the triggered ability goes on the stack on top of it. The triggered ability will resolve before you draw a card from the cycling ability.

Create X 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying.
Cycling {2}{W} ({2}{W}, Discard this card: Draw a card.)
When you cycle Decree of Justice, you may pay {X}. If you do, create X 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens.

He stands in the shadow of his lord, Geth, drinking in the dark energies of the Vault.

Disciple of the Vault

If an artifact is put into a graveyard at the same time as Disciple of the Vault, its ability triggers for that artifact.

Whenever an artifact is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you may have target opponent lose 1 life.

Eternal Dragon

Plainscycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on Plainscycling this card. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being activated also stops Plainscycling from being activated.

Plainscycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with Plainscycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.

Unlike the normal cycling ability, Plainscycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a Plains card. After you find a Plains card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.

You can choose to find any card with the Plains land type, including nonbasic lands. You can also choose not to find a card, even if there is a Plains card in your library.

Flying
{3}{W}{W}: Return Eternal Dragon from your graveyard to your hand. Activate only during your upkeep.
Plainscycling {2} ({2}, Discard this card: Search your library for a Plains card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.)

She remembers every word spoken, from the hero's oath to the baby's cry.

Eternal Witness

If a resolving spell puts Eternal Witness onto the battlefield, Eternal Witness's ability can target that card if it's put into your graveyard as it resolves.

When Eternal Witness enters, you may return target card from your graveyard to your hand.

Exalted Angel

You only gain the life when the triggered ability resolves. If you are reduced to zero life before the ability resolves, you will lose before gaining the life.

Flying
Whenever Exalted Angel deals damage, you gain that much life.
Morph {2}{W}{W} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

"The secret to invention is to see something in your mind, then find where it hides in the world."

Fabricate

Search your library for an artifact card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.

The spell fell upon the crowd like a dragon, ancient and full of death.

Fireball

Fireball's damage is divided as Fireball resolves, not as it's cast, because there are no choices involved. The division involves only targets that are still legal as Fireball resolves.

For example, if X is 5 and you choose three target creatures, Fireball has a total cost of {7}{R} (even though its mana cost is just {5}{R} and its mana value is 6). If those creatures are all still legal targets as Fireball resolves, it deals 1 damage to each of them.

You can target more than X creatures. However, if the number of legal targets at the time Fireball resolves is greater than X, none of them will be dealt any damage.

You may cast Fireball with zero targets, regardless of the value chosen for X. If you do so, it will not be a targeted spell, and no damage will actually be dealt when it resolves.

This spell costs {1} more to cast for each target beyond the first.
Fireball deals X damage divided evenly, rounded down, among any number of targets.

Flooded Strand

{T}, Pay 1 life, Sacrifice Flooded Strand: Search your library for a Plains or Island card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle.

Forest

At first, vedalken observers thought blinkmoths naturally avoided certain places. Then they realized those places were frogmite feeding grounds.

Frogmite

Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs {1} less to cast for each artifact you control.)

Furnace Dragon

If a creature (such as Clone) enters the battlefield as a copy of this creature, the copy’s “enters-the-battlefield” ability will still trigger as long as you cast that creature spell from your hand.

Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs {1} less to cast for each artifact you control.)
Flying
When Furnace Dragon enters, if you cast it from your hand, exile all artifacts.

An empty canvas holds infinite possibilities.

Glimmervoid

At the beginning of the end step, if you control no artifacts, sacrifice Glimmervoid.
{T}: Add one mana of any color.

Goblin Charbelcher

If you reveal no land cards, Goblin Charbelcher deals damage equal to the number of cards revealed, and then you may order your library as you like.

You must choose a target for Goblin Charbelcher's ability as you activate it, before you reveal any cards.

{3}, {T}: Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a land card. Goblin Charbelcher deals damage equal to the number of nonland cards revealed this way to any target. If the revealed land card was a Mountain, Goblin Charbelcher deals double that damage instead. Put the revealed cards on the bottom of your library in any order.

Kuldotha, wellspring of molten metal, temple of the goblin horde.

Great Furnace

Island

All the junk, refuse, and offal of the Krark Clan is diligently collected, melted down, and made into more junk, refuse, and offal.

Krark-Clan Ironworks

The fatal flaw in every plan is the assumption that you know more than your enemy.

Mana Leak

Counter target spell unless its controller pays {3}.

Myr Incubator

{6}, {T}, Sacrifice Myr Incubator: Search your library for any number of artifact cards, exile them, then create that many 1/1 colorless Myr artifact creature tokens. Then shuffle.

Regardless of the century, plane, or species, developing artificers never fail to invent the ornithopter.

Ornithopter

"Ashes to ashes, rust to rust."
—Viridian shaman

Oxidize

Destroy target artifact. It can't be regenerated.

For the first time in his life, Grakk felt a little warm and fuzzy inside.

Pacifism

Enchant creature
Enchanted creature can't attack or block.

Pentad Prism

Once Pentad Prism has run out of charge counters, it remains on the battlefield.

Sunburst checks what mana was actually spent to cast the spell. If an effect allows you to spend mana “as though it were mana” of any color or type, that allows you to spend mana you couldn't otherwise spend, but it doesn't change what mana you spent to cast the spell.

Sunburst (This enters with a charge counter on it for each color of mana spent to cast it.)
Remove a charge counter from Pentad Prism: Add one mana of any color.

Plains

To renew the land, plow the land. To destroy the land, do nothing.
—Druids' saying

Plow Under

The owner decides the order the two lands are stacked there.

Put two target lands on top of their owners' libraries.

For the first and last time, the horrific creature experienced terror.

Purge

Destroy target artifact creature or black creature. It can't be regenerated.

"When the air burns, only death breathes deep."
—Bogardan mage

Pyroclasm

Pyroclasm deals 2 damage to each creature.

Rampant Growth

Because the "search" requires you to find a card with certain characteristics, you don't have to find the card if you don't want to.

The land does not count toward your one per turn limit because it was put onto the battlefield by an effect.

Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.

Its transmissions are the word of Memnarch. It speaks, and metal bows.

Relic Barrier

Renewed Faith

There are many important moments in the story, but the most crucial—called "story spotlights"—are shown on cards. These cards have the Planeswalker symbol in their text box; this symbol has no effect on gameplay. You can read more about these events in the official Magic fiction at http://www.mtgstory.com.

You gain 6 life.
Cycling {1}{W} ({1}{W}, Discard this card: Draw a card.)
When you cycle Renewed Faith, you may gain 2 life.

Rewind

If the spell is an illegal target when Rewind tries to resolve, perhaps because it was countered by another spell or ability, Rewind won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't untap any lands.

Rewind targets only a spell. It doesn't target any lands. The lands are chosen as Rewind resolves.

You can choose up to four lands, no matter who controls any of them. Those lands untap once. You can't choose one land and have it untap four times, for example.

Counter target spell. Untap up to four lands.

Rude Awakening

A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.

Lands that enter the battlefield or otehrwise come under your control after Rude Awakening resolves won’t be affected.

Choose one —
• Untap all lands you control.
• Until end of turn, lands you control become 2/2 creatures that are still lands.
Entwine {2}{G} (Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.)

Scrabbling Claws

{T}: Target player exiles a card from their graveyard.
{1}, Sacrifice Scrabbling Claws: Exile target card from a graveyard. Draw a card.

Secluded Steppe

Vulshok mana rituals echo the day when the red sun burst through Mirrodin's surface to take its place in the heavens.

Seething Song

Serum Visions

Shrapnel Blast

Players can only respond once this spell has been cast and all its costs have been paid. No one can try to destroy the artifact you sacrificed to prevent you from casting this spell.

You must sacrifice exactly one artifact to cast this spell; you can’t cast it without sacrificing an artifact, and you can’t sacrifice additional artifacts.

As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice an artifact.
Shrapnel Blast deals 5 damage to any target.

The vedalken interrogate all intruders—once the hoverguards are done with them.

Somber Hoverguard

Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs {1} less to cast for each artifact you control.)
Flying

"If I wanted your opinion, I'd have told you what it was."
—Pemmin, Riptide survivor

Stifle

An activated ability has a “Cost: Effect” format. Look for the colon. A triggered ability starts with “when”, “whenever”, or “at”.

It can target delayed triggered abilities. For example, a card that says “Whenever a player cycles a card, you may exile target creature. If you do, return that creature to the battlefield at the beginning of the end step.” triggers when a player cycles a card and creates a delayed trigger that happens at the beginning of the end step. You can choose to target the “at the beginning of the end step” trigger when it is placed on the stack at end of turn.

Turn-based actions and special actions like the normal card draw, combat damage, or turning a face-down creature face up can’t be targeted.

Counter target activated or triggered ability. (Mana abilities can't be targeted.)

Talisman of Dominance

{T}: Add {C}.
{T}: Add {U} or {B}. Talisman of Dominance deals 1 damage to you.

Talisman of Progress

{T}: Add {C}.
{T}: Add {W} or {U}. Talisman of Progress deals 1 damage to you.

Those who bring nothing to the temple take nothing away.

Temple of the False God

{T}: Add {C}{C}. Activate only if you control five or more lands.

Lymph, the fluid essence of blinkmoths, is prized by wizards for the rush of intellect it provides.

Thirst for Knowledge

You can discard either one artifact card or two cards which may or may not be artifacts. If you really want to, you can discard two artifact cards.

Draw three cards. Then discard two cards unless you discard an artifact card.

Vedalken eyes don't see the beauty in things. They see only what those things can teach.

Thoughtcast

Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs {1} less to cast for each artifact you control.)
Draw two cards.

Tranquil Thicket

Tranquil Thicket enters tapped.
{T}: Add {G}.
Cycling {G} ({G}, Discard this card: Draw a card.)

Tel-Jilad, sanctum of the ancient trolls, keepers of the secret of Mirrodin's origin.

Tree of Tales

Ish Sah, den of the warlord Geth, commander of countless nim.

Vault of Whispers

Because the elves are so in touch with Mirrodin's nature, they understand best how to dismantle it.

Viridian Shaman

When Viridian Shaman enters, destroy target artifact.

It is the forest beyond the horizon, the mountain waiting to be climbed, the new land across the endless sea.

Wayfarer's Bauble

{2}, {T}, Sacrifice Wayfarer's Bauble: Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.

Welding Jar

Sacrifice Welding Jar: Regenerate target artifact.

Windswept Heath

{T}, Pay 1 life, Sacrifice Windswept Heath: Search your library for a Forest or Plains card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle.

Wing Shards

An “attacking creature” is one that has been declared as an attacker or put onto the battlefield attacking during a turn’s combat. Unless that creature leaves combat, it continues to be an attacking creature through the end of combat step, even if the player it was attacking has left the game or the planeswalker it was attacking has left combat.

If you cast Wing Shards after combat damage has been dealt, only creatures that survived combat can be sacrificed.

Storm counts spells cast before the spell with storm was cast. Spells cast after the spell with storm was cast but before the storm ability resolves aren’t counted.

Target player sacrifices an attacking creature.
Storm (When you cast this spell, copy it for each spell cast before it this turn. You may choose new targets for the copies.)
