Rulings

  1. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    Urza, Lord Protector's first ability can't reduce the colored mana costs of spells you cast.

  2. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    During each of your turns, you may activate Urza, Planeswalker's loyalty abilities twice, whether that's activating the same ability two times, or activating two different abilities once each.

  3. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    When a pair of cards are melded, the result is a single creature that's represented by two cards. If the melded creature dies, both cards are put into your graveyard. As it leaves the battlefield, both of those cards are turned face up again. If the cards are put on the top or bottom of your library, you choose their relative order.

  4. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    One card in each pair of meld cards has an ability that instructs you to exile the two cards and meld them. If you control more than one object with one of those names, you select one object with that name to exile.

  5. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    When two cards are exiled and melded, they each leave the battlefield, then return together as one new object with no relation to either of the objects that left the battlefield. Counters, Auras, Equipment, and other effects that affected those two cards don't affect the melded permanent.

  6. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    Only two cards belonging to the same meld pair can be melded. Tokens, cards that aren't meld cards, or meld cards that don't form a meld pair can't be melded. If an effect instructs a player to meld cards that can't be melded, those cards remain in exile.

  7. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    While a meld card is in any zone other than the battlefield, it has only the characteristics of its front face. The same is true while it's on the battlefield with its front face up.

  8. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    While a melded permanent is on the battlefield, it has only the characteristics of its combined back face. Any effects that modify how the new object enters the battlefield will consider only the combined back face.

  9. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    Note that the permanent represented by the combined back faces has a color indicator.

  10. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    The mana value of a melded permanent is the sum of the mana values of its front faces. A creature that becomes a copy of a melded permanent has only the characteristics of that combined back face, and its mana value is 0.

  11. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    A player prompted to name a card may name the combined back face, and each player has the right to know that combined back face's characteristics at all times.

  12. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    If an effect moves a melded permanent to a new zone and then affects "that card," it affects both cards.

  13. Oct 14, 2022 · Wizards of the Coast

    In the Commander variant, a meld card's color identity is determined only by the mana costs and mana symbols in the rules text of its front face. No symbols or rules text of the permanent it melds into are considered.
