704 - Other Rules
- 704.1 - Some cards use the text "If [cost] was spent to
play ~this~, [effect]." Other cards say "When ~this~ comes into
play, [effect] unless [cost] was spent to play it."
- 704.1.Ruling.1 - This text means that if the generic portion of the mana
cost was paid with the specified mana type that the effect occurs as
described. For example, if you pay a {1}{W} cost with {R}{W},
then {R} was spent to play the spell. [D'Angelo 2006/05/13]
- 704.1.Ruling.2 - If the creature is put directly into play without having
been played, then no mana was spent to play it. The "If" case will fail
and the trigger case will do the effect. [Dissension FAQ 2006/04/13]
- 704.1.Ruling.3 - If a copy of such a creature comes into play by being
played (as with Clone), you do not have the option to pay extra mana
as it is played, but if the mana cost you did pay includes the right cost,
then the cost is considered paid. [Dissension FAQ 2006/04/13]
