![]() ![]() ![]() Like a sorcery, an instant has its effect, then you put it into your graveyard. Instant - An instant is just like a sorcery, except you can cast it just about any time you want, even during your opponent’s turn or in response to another spell. This differs from Sorcery cards, which can only be cast during your own Main Phase. Instants can be cast on your own turn, during your opponents turn, and in response to other spells. I am going to reiterate that the Basic Rules are sufficient for and a better way to learn how to play MtG rather than the Comprehensive Rules What do Instants and abilities have to do with the Stack and Priority?. ![]() There is also Counterflux which can be overloaded to "Counter each spell you don't control", which seems like it could only possibly work with an understanding of the stack.Ĭould someone explain, in simple English: In addition, you can only cast a spell when the stack is empty, so the entire stack must be able to be resolved in your turn at some point. The turn rules, and the rules on Casting Spells, never mention any point at which the other player gets priority, so when can they possibly Cancel? So players (plural) may cast spells, but only the active player has priority, so only the active player can cast an instant. Players may cast spells and activate abilities. Furthermore, The Complete Turn states that during the Main Phase:ĥ05.4. But when is that? I can't find any mention of when the other player gets the priority to cast an instant, except on their own turn. Spells go on the stack, and priority gets passed at some points (I have no idea when), and effects on the stack are resolved when both players have passed priority. My confusion is boundlessįor instance: to cast Instants one needs priority. Goblin Diplomats should be tappable sometime during other peoples' turns), but I don't seem to be making much progress: as I come to understand some things, others make less sense. I was reading the expanded rules to try to understand exactly when it's okay to cast instants (e.g. I'm a relatively new player to Magic: the Gathering. ![]()
