Rulings

  1. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    When calculating a spell's total cost, include any alternative costs, additional costs, or anything else that increases or reduces the cost to cast the spell. Convoke applies after the total cost is calculated. Convoke doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value.

  2. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    You can tap any untapped creature you control to convoke a spell, even one you haven't controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.

  3. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    Tapping an untapped creature that's attacking or blocking to convoke a spell won't cause that creature to stop attacking or blocking.

  4. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    Tapping a multicolored creature using convoke will pay for {1} or one mana of your choice of any of that creature's colors.

  5. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    If a creature you control has a mana ability with {T} in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for convoke.

  6. Jan 12, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast

    Because convoke isn't an alternative cost, it can be used in conjunction with alternative costs.

  7. Jul 18, 2014 · Wizards of the Coast

    The declare blockers step is the last chance to cast Devouring Light before creatures deal their combat damage. However, a creature remains an attacking or blocking creature during the combat damage step and end of combat step. Devouring Light may be cast targeting such a creature during those steps, after the creature has dealt combat damage.
