Glade of the Pump Spells

Rulings

• 2024-11-08: You still follow all of the normal timing rules for playing a land as a special action when you play Glade of the Pump Spells. You just have to pay {2}{G} in addition to all of the other requirements as you do so.
• 2024-11-08: Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as {T} and {W}. These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.
• 2024-11-08: Glade of the Pump Spells is played as a land. It doesn’t use the stack, it’s not a spell, it can’t be responded to, and it counts as your land play for the turn. Unlike other lands, Glade of the Pump Spells has a mana cost of {2}{G} and a mana value of 3.
• 2024-11-08: Playtest cards aren’t legal for play in any tournament format other than Mystery Booster Limited formats. On the other hand, we expect they will spice up a wide variety of non-tournament games (as long as everyone’s on the same page about using them!).
• 2024-11-08: For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.
• 2024-11-08: Paying {2}{G} won’t let you play Glade of the Pump Spells if you don’t have any land drops remaining that turn.
• 2024-11-08: You don’t have to pay the mana cost if a spell or ability lets you put Glade of the Pump Spells onto the battlefield, such as with the activated ability of Elvish Reclaimer.
