    Abilities/Keywords

    Delve

    Rules

  • Because delve isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs, such as flashback. It can also be used to pay for additional costs that include generic mana.
  • Delve doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value. For example, Treasure Cruise's mana value is 8 even if you exiled three cards to cast it.
  • You can exile cards to pay only for generic mana, and you can't exile more cards than the generic mana requirement of a spell with delve. For example, you can't exile more than seven cards from your graveyard to cast Treasure Cruise unless an effect has increased its cost.

    Rules

  • A permanent card is an artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card.
  • All of the permanents put onto the battlefield this way enter at the same time. If any have triggered abilities that trigger on something else entering, they'll see each other.
  • If a card in a player's library has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • If a permanent card in your library has no mana symbols in its upper right corner (because it's a land card, for example), its mana value is 0. Such cards can always be put onto the battlefield with Genesis Wave.
  • If you have fewer than X cards in your library, you reveal all of them.
  • You don't have to put permanent cards revealed this way onto the battlefield if you choose not to, regardless of their mana values.
