Transmute
Keywords · intermediate
Transmute lets a card in your hand fetch a different card of the same cost. It reads "Transmute [cost]."
How it works
- Transmute is an activated ability used from your hand: pay the transmute cost and discard the card.
- Search your library for a card with the same mana value as the transmuted card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle.
- Transmute can only be activated at sorcery speed.
Rules notes
- You discard the transmute card to find a different card of equal mana value, so it works as a flexible tutor.
- The fetched card goes to your hand, not the battlefield; you still have to cast it.
