- You must sacrifice the Swamps if you can. You cannot choose not to pay if you have them. [Aahz 1995/06/22]
- You should always have one creature for your opponent to take (i.e. the Denizen). If by chance you have no creature for your opponent to take, then they don't get one. Remember that taking a creature is optional so your opponent is not forced to take the Denizen. [D'Angelo 1995/08/02]
- Note - This card was creature type "Infernal-Denizen" until Oracle 2007/10/01, when it became "Demon".

Ice Age (Common) |
When Kjeldoran Dead comes into play, sacrifice a creature. {B}: Regenerate |
- If you control no creatures in play (other than this one) when it enters play, you have to sacrifice this card. [Duelist Magazine #6, Page 132]

- You do not get the creature back if the creature is not still in the graveyard at the end of the turn. [Aahz 1995/06/10]

Skip your draw phase. If you discard a card from your hand, remove that card from the game. {0}: Pay 1 life to set aside the top card of your library. At the beginning of your next discard phase, put that card into your hand. Effects that prevent or redirect damage cannot be used to counter this loss of life. |
- If the card is not still in the graveyard when the trigger resolves, it does not remove the card form the game. [D'Angelo 2008/07/12]
- Removing Necropotence from play will not stop the cards from the life-payment ability from being put into your hand at the end of turn. [D'Angelo 1998/11/13]
- Only has the effect of making you skip your draw step if it is in play when your draw step would normally start. [WotC Rules Team 1995/10/18]
- The acquired cards are not considered draws. They will not cause damage with Underworld Dreams or have Enduring Renewal detect creatures. [D'Angelo 1995/12/08]
- Can be used with Fasting. The reason is that Necropotence does not force you to skip your draw step unless it is in play at the end of your upkeep phase. Fasting allows you to mark the draw step as "skipped" during upkeep prior to Necropotence kicking in. [Aahz 1996/01/16]
- Necropotence interacts with Madness (see Rule 502.24) so you cannot use the Madness ability. This is because Madness turns "discard to graveyard" into "discard to removed from game" and Necropotence turns any discard into simply "remove from game" with no discard. Madness only works if you remove it from game as part of its ability. [Jordan 2002/03/03]
- The discard removal was a replacement ability until 2008/07/01 when it was made into a triggered ability. [D'Angelo 2008/07/12]

- Note - Also see Skipping a Phase, Rule 419.6e.
| Summon Imp 1/1 |
3B (4) |
Ice Age (Common) |
{T}: Untap target blue creature. {T}: Force target non-wall creature to attack. If creature cannot attack, destroy it at end of turn. Use this ability only during target creature's controller's turn, before the attack. Cannot target creatures brought under their controller's control this turn. |
- If the creature was not controlled continuously, it is not a legal target. [D'Angelo 2007/07/15]
- The creature is destroyed if it does not attack because it simply cannot do so legally. For example, a Sea Serpent will be destroyed if it cannot attack because the opponent has no islands. [Aahz 1995/07/01]
- You can use this effect on a creature you know won't be able to attack. For example, you can use it on a tapped creature. [Aahz 1995/07/01]
- Note - Also see Must Attack, Rule 502.2.
| Enchantment |
3B (4) |
Ice Age (Rare) |
For each 1 damage dealt to you or 1 life you lose, sacrifice a permanent you control or choose and discard a card from your hand. You cannot sacrifice Oath of Lim-Dûl in this way. Ignore this effect if you control no permanents other than Oath of Lim-Dûl and have no cards in hand. {B}{B}: Draw a card. |
- When a player is dealt damage, the damage causes loss of life and triggers this card. [Oracle 1998/11/11]
- You can sacrifice one Oath of Lim-Dul to another one. You cannot sacrifice it to itself. [Duelist Magazine #14, Page 27]
- Payments of life count as lost life for this and all other such effects. [Duelist Magazine #10, Page 43]
| Summon Rats X/3 |
2B (3) |
Ice Age (Common) |
| Pestilence Rats has power equal to the total number of other Rats in play, no matter who controls them. For example, as long as there are two other Rats in play, Pestilence Rats has power and toughness 2/3. |
- Does not count itself for determining power. It only counts _other_ Rats. [Card Text]
| Sorcery |
BBB (3) |
Ice Age (Rare) |
| Each player loses 1/3 of his or her life; then chooses and discards 1/3 of the cards in his or her hand; then sacrifices 1/3 of the creatures he or she controls; and finally sacrifices 1/3 of the lands he or she controls. Round each loss up. Effects that prevent or redirect damage cannot be used to counter this loss of life. |
- Creatures with Protection from Black are not ignored by Pox. This is not considered a targeted effect so they are both counted and valid choices for being destroyed. [D'Angelo 1996/02/01]
| Enchant Creature |
1B (2) |

| Enchant Creature |
2B (3) |
Ice Age (Common) |
When Soul Kiss comes into play, choose target creature. {B}: Pay 1 life to give creature Soul Kiss enchants +2/+2 until end of turn. You cannot spend more than {B}{B}{B} in this way each turn. Effects that prevent or redirect damage cannot be used to counter this loss of life. |
| Interrupt |
2B (3) |
Ice Age (Rare) |
| For each artifact or creature in target opponent's graveyard, add one colorless mana to your mana pool and gain 1 life. |
- The text "for each artifact or creature" means the sum of cards which are either creature and/or artifact. Artifact creatures are not double counted. [D'Angelo 1995/10/31]

| Target spell, which must have a single target, targets a new legal target of your choice. |
- Only targets the spell being Deflected and not the original or new target of the spell it is affecting. [Aahz 1995/07/09]
- You choose the spell to target on announcement, but you pick the new target for that spell on resolution. [bethmo 1999/11/30]
- You cannot make a spell which is on the stack target itself. Thus, you cannot make Counterspell target itself or make another Deflection target itself. [D'Angelo 1999/12/07]
- You can choose to make a spell on the stack target the Deflection you are playing (if such a target choice would be legal had the spell be cast while Deflection was on the stack). The new target for the Deflected spell is not chosen until Deflection resolves. Deflection is still on the stack when new targets are selected for the spell. [D'Angelo 2000/06/20]
- Once Deflection resolves, the new target is considered to be targeted by the deflected spell. This will trigger any effects, such as Skulking Ghost, which trigger on being targeted. [bethmo 1997/08/08]
- A Counterspell can be changed to target something that is further down the stack (meaning the target will resolve before the Counterspell does). [D'Angelo 2000/05/20]

| {1}{U}: Take target white or black creature from your graveyard and put it directly into play as though it were just summoned. That creature now requires an additional Cumulative Upkeep: {2}. If the creature leaves play, remove it from the game. |
- A "creature card" is a Creature card or Artifact Creature card. [D'Angelo 1999/05/01] Older cards of type Summon are also Creature cards.
- Removes the creature from the game no matter how it leaves play, including Unsummoning or being killed. [D'Angelo 1995/11/15]
- If it is removed from the game by Safe Haven, then this effect will not do anything additional. Each player has only one "out of the game" zone, so this effect will not cause the Safe Haven to lose track of the creature. [WotC Rules Team 1996/10/03]
- The remove from the game is a replacement effect. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- Note - Also see Cumulative Upkeep, Rule 502.13.

- You can target any spell or permanent, it need not be red. It just does not do anything unless the color matches. [D'Angelo 1995/06/09]
- The decision to counter a spell or destroy a permanent is a decision made on announcement before a target of the proper type is selected. If the spell is redirected, this mode cannot be changed, so only targets of the selected type are valid. [WotC Rules Team 1995/09/22] See Rule G13.13 on Modal spells.

Cumulative Upkeep: {U} During your upkeep, Illusionary Presence gains a landwalk ability of your choice until end of turn. |
- Can give a basic land landwalk, legendary landwalk (all legendary lands), or a specific non-basic landwalk (like Maze of Ith-Walk). [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 99]
- Cannot give a type of Snow-Covered landwalk, because Snow-Covered is an attribute like color is, and not part of the land's type. [D'Angelo 1998/05/04]

- Can be used on an untapped artifact. Being tapped is not a targeting requirement. [Aahz 1995/06/08]
- The artifact taps after returning to the opponent (if it is not already tapped), so any abilities triggered off it tapping happen at that time. [Aahz 1995/07/05]

| Look at the top three cards of target player's library; then, either shuffle that library or put those three cards on top of the library in any order. Draw a card at the beginning of the next turn's upkeep. |
- This does not cause a player to lose if they have less than 3 cards in their library. It allows you to look at and reorder or shuffle whatever remaining cards there might be. [Duelist Magazine #6, Page 130]

XU (1) |
Ice Age (Common) |
| Counter target spell unless that spell's caster pays an additional {X}. That player must draw and pay all available mana from lands and mana pool until {X} is paid; he or she may also pay mana from other sources if desired. |
- When this spell resolves, you either pay X mana or let all your lands become tapped. The lands that become tapped are not "tapped for mana". [bethmo 1997/10/09] If you choose to pay, you may pay the X mana using whatever mana abilities you want to use.
- Special lands which do not provide mana are also tapped by this card. [D'Angelo 2000/11/06]
- If the land provides mana only for specific purposes (like Mishra's Workshop), it cannot be used to pay the X mana (unless that purpose is being filled). Mishra's Workshop, like most purposed mana, could not be used to pay for Power Sink. [WotC Rules Team 1994/09/30]
- Does not increase the mana cost of the spell. It just requires a separate expenditure in order for it to succeed. [bethmo 1994/05/05]

3U (4) |
Ice Age (Common) |
| Untap target creature opponent controls and gain control of it until end of turn. That creature can attack or use abilities that require {T} as part of the activation cost. When you lose control of the creature, tap it. |
- Can be used on an untapped creature. Being tapped is not a targeting requirement. [Aahz 1995/06/08]
- The creature returns to the opponent when the "until end of turn" effect wears off during the cleanup step. It taps during the Cleanup step (if it is not already tapped), so any abilities triggered off it tapping happen at that time. [D'Angelo 1999/07/10]
- Note that the creature gets summoning sickness again when it returns so it cannot be tapped for an ability or attack until it begins that player's turn under their control again. [D'Angelo 1995/08/02]
- This effect ends if the creature phases out. The creature will phase back in during your next untap phase without the Ray of Command's control effect, which typically means it will be under its original controller's control. [D'Angelo 1997/09/02]
- Note - Also see Haste, Rule 502.5.

Cumulative Upkeep: {1}{U}{U} Instead of their normal mana, plains produce {R}, swamps produce {G}, mountains produce {W}, and forests produce {B}. |
- If a player uses Magical Hack to make a land type be listed as producing two different colors, the player tapping the land for mana can choose to produce mana of either color. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 100] But if it produces more than one mana, all mana is of the same color. [D'Angelo 1995/07/21]

| Change the text of target spell or permanent by replacing all instances of one color word with another. For example, you may change "Counters black spells" to "Counters blue spells." Sleight of Mind cannot change mana symbols. |
- If played on a spell being cast, and that spell becomes a permanent, the permanent enters play with an effect on it. It does not change the base characteristics of the permanent. This is just like having the permanent enter play, and then playing this spell except it is never in play with its original text. [bethmo 1998/05/22]
- Can target a card with no color words on it. [Duelist Magazine #5, Page 23]
- Cannot change a color word to the same color word. It must be a different word. [Duelist Magazine #5, Page 23]
- You cannot Sleight proper nouns (i.e. card names). This means that you cannot affect Black Vise. [WotC Rules Team 1995/04/26]
- You cannot Sleight explanatory references to a card's own color. This applies to Dark Heart of the Wood, Scarwood Goblins, and Marsh Goblins. [Duelist Magazine #6, Page 132]
- This spell can be used to change the "flavor text" (the italicized text) on the card. This has no game effect but uses up the spell. [bethmo 1994/04/01]

If that player pays {2}, the creature deals and receives damage in combat as normal. |
- The payments are made when the spell resolves. The three options are: pay {2} to let creature act as normal, pay {1} to have creature neither deal or receive damage, or pay nothing and the creature does deal and receive damage but it will be destroyed at end of combat. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]

| All creatures able to block target creature must do so. Lure does not prevent a creature from blocking more than one creature if blocker has that ability. If blocker is forced to block more creatures than it is allowed to, defender chooses which of these creatures to block, but must block as many creatures as allowed. |
- Lure does not give a creature the ability to block the Lured creature, it just forces those creatures which are already able to block the Lured creature to do so. [D'Angelo 1994/06/01]
- Opponent does not have to power special effects in an attempt to make all creatures block the Lured creature. For example, you do not need to power a Goblin Balloon Brigade to block a flying creature with Lure, but if you do power it, the Brigade must block. [bethmo 1994/08/01] More specifically, even a cost of zero mana is an optional cost you can choose not to pay. [WotC Rules Team 2000/02/16]
- If a Lured creature is in a band, only blockers able to block the Lured creature are affected by the Lure. [bethmo 1994/10/01]

- Artifact creatures can regenerate from destroy effects like this. [D'Angelo 1998/02/03]
- This spell is not modal. If the target changes from an artifact to an enchantment or vice versa (as with Transmogrifying Licid), this spell still destroys it. [WotC Rules Team 1998/07/01]

| During your upkeep, pay {W}{W} or destroy Drought. Before a spell that requires {B} as part of its casting cost may be cast, or an ability that requires {B} as part of its activation cost may be played, the controller of that spell or ability sacrifices a swamp for each {B} in the spell's casting cost or the ability's activation cost. |
- You have to sacrifice a Swamp for each black mana in the activation cost. If you use Pestilence with BBBB, that's 4 activations with B each so you sacrifice 4 Swamps. [D'Angelo 1996/06/28]

| Play with the cards in your hand face up on the table. If you draw a creature card from your library, discard it. Whenever a creature goes to your graveyard from play, put that creature into your hand. |
- Token creatures are removed from the game if they leave play, so this effect will not let you get them in your hand. [D'Angelo 1994/06/08]
- The "draw a creature" ability is a replacement effect (see Rule 419). [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- You can use Resurrection or Safe Haven to get creatures into play. [D'Angelo 1995/06/14] This is because the creatures come to your hand or into play in some way that is not considered a "draw". Enduring Renewal only affects creatures that are "drawn".
- If you Animate Dead a creature and then the Animate is removed, the creature goes to your hand. [D'Angelo 1995/06/14]
- If the creature is only a creature due to an effect, it still comes to your hand. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9] This includes Mishra's Factory, Titania's Song, and any other way to animate a card.
- The triggered ability that returns the creature card to your hand fails to do so if the creature is no longer there when the ability resolves. [D'Angelo 2006/08/01]

| {T}: Switch the blocking creatures of two target attacking creatures; all defense must remain legal. Use this ability only during combat after defense is chosen and before damage is dealt. |
- Does not undo any abilities which triggered due to the declaration of blockers. A creature which is switched away still has any triggered abilities resolve on it. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- The new blocker does not trigger any abilities which trigger on creatures becoming blockers, because the creatures were already blockers and the simple change of who is blocking does not trigger such abilities. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- Can target any two attacking creatures but only works if both of them have at least one blocker when it resolves and when you are done choosing new blockers. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 99]
- Note - Also see Legendary, Rule G12.9.

During your upkeep, pay {W}{W} or destroy Justice. Whenever a red creature or spell deals damage, Justice deals an equal amount of damage to the controller of that creature or spell. If another spell or effect reduces the amount of damage a red creature or spell deals, it does not reduce the amount of damage dealt by Justice. |
- The damage done by Justice is done as a triggered ability, which is added to the stack just after the red creature or spell deals its damage. [D'Angelo 2000/03/03]
- Remember that Justice only works on red spell and creature sources. It does not do anything for non-creature permanents, so using Chaoslace on Justice will not cause an infinite loop. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- If a single source does damage to multiple targets at once, Justice will add up all the damage done and deal damage to the source's controller at one time (not multiple separate damagings). [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 100]

Flying At the end of a turn in which any creature is damaged by Seraph and put into the graveyard, put that creature directly into play under your control as though it were just summoned. If you lose control of Seraph or if Seraph leaves play, bury the creature. |
- You do not get the creature back if the creature is not still in the graveyard at the end of the turn. [Aahz 1995/06/10]
- If the Seraph leaves play before the creature comes into play, then you simply get to keep the creature. [Aahz 1997/09/15] If, however, you just lost control of the Seraph and later get control of that same Seraph and lose control of it again at some time after you got the free creature, the creature will be sacrificed at that time because the Seraph remembers that it gave you that creature.

- Can move any enchantment on a creature to another valid creature target. Mostly this refers to enchant creature cards, but enchant artifact cards on an artifact creature or enchant land cards on a land creature could also be moved to legal targets. [D'Angelo 1995/06/23]
- Only targets the enchantment and not either creature. [Aahz 1995/07/09] This is means it can move enchantments onto a creature which cannot normally be targeted by spells and abilities if the enchantment is legal on that target.

- This is not considered to be drawing a card. [Aahz 1995/06/12]
- The card is not part of your hand in any way. You cannot be forced to discard it due to a discard from hand effect. When you play it, it is played following rules as if it were being played from your hand (e.g. a sorcery is played as such and is not played as an instant). [Duelist Magazine #11, Page 56]

Use this ability only if there are no charge counters on Ice Cauldron. You may play that spell as though it were in your hand. {T}: Remove the charge counter from Ice Cauldron to add mana of the type and amount last used to put a charge counter on Ice Cauldron to your mana pool. This mana is usable only to cast the spell on top of Ice Cauldron. |
- Cards which are not actually in your hand, such as ones on an Elkin Bottle, cannot be played onto the Ice Cauldron. [Duelist Magazine #11, Page 57]
- The mana put in the Cauldron can only be used to play the given spell, but you can add additional mana to a spell. [D'Angelo 1995/06/08] This means you can pay part of the cost on one turn and the rest of it on the next turn.
- The mana can be used to pay for penalty costs from things like Gloom. [Rules Team 2001/05/01]
- The mana can be used for additional costs outlined in the spell's text. [Duelist Magazine #9, Page 61]
- Tapping the Cauldron for the mana is a mana ability. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- X can be zero. This places a zero mana counter on the Cauldron. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- You do not have to use any mana from the Cauldron when playing the spell if you don't want to. You don't even have to tap the Cauldron and draw the mana, you can just play the spell using mana from somewhere else. [D'Angelo 1995/06/12]
- You can play the spell at any time as if it were in your hand. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- You can only play the spell when you could legally play it normally. So no playing a Sorcery on your opponent's turn. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- When you play the spell and it resolves, it either becomes a permanent or goes to the graveyard just like normal. It does not stay out of the game. [D'Angelo 1995/08/01]
- If the Cauldron leaves play, you can still play any spells it removed from the game as though they were in your hand. You just no longer have access to the mana you charged the Cauldron with. [D'Angelo 2000/03/09]
- If the Cauldron leaves your control, the spell remains out of the game. The controller of the Cauldron is the only one that can tap to get the mana out of it. The player who put the spell out of the game with the Cauldron is the only one that can play the spell and they can do so even if they are not in control of the Cauldron. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- It is possible to have more than one spell removed by the Cauldron. You can tap the Cauldron to remove the charge counter and whatever mana is on it but leave the spell there. Later, you can tap it and put in mana and a charge counter to add another spell. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- If multiple spells are removed by the Cauldron, any one of them can be played. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- If multiple spells are removed by the Cauldron, the mana can only be used for the spell that was removed by the Cauldron when the most recent charge counter was put there. [Aahz 1995/06/29]
- If the ability to remove a card with the Cauldron is countered, you do not lose the spell since the spell would be removed during resolution. [Duelist Magazine #7, Page 9]
- You cannot store mana that is to be used for a special purpose into the Cauldron, such as Mishra's Workshop. [Aahz 1995/07/04]
- If you use mana from a Soldevi Machinist to charge the Cauldron, you cannot use the mana to cast anything and so it's just mana burn waiting to happen. This is because the Ice Cauldron remembers everything about how the mana can be used and generates mana with the same restrictions. [Duelist Magazine #10, Page 44]
- Power Artifact will reduce the cost of placing a charge counter on it by {2}, but the Cauldron will count only mana spent on it and will not store extra mana because of the Power Artifact's effect. Thus, if you spent RR2 by declaring an RR4 cost, you get RR2 later and not RR4. [WotC Rules Team 1995/09/22]
- Power Artifact will force a minimum expenditure of 1 on the Cauldron. [WotC Rules Team 1995/09/22]

| {1}, {T}: Tap target artifact, creature, or land. |
- Tapping a card with an effect like this will never pay the cost of an ability. For example, tapping a land with this card will not put a point of mana into a player's pool. And tapping a Prodigal Sorcerer will not make them have to deal a point of damage to something. [D'Angelo 1998/02/03]
- This card's ability is played on the stack. That means that any instants or abilities announced in response to it will resolve first. Also, any card which is tapped as a cost will be tapped before this resolves. What this means is that the Icy Manipulator cannot be used to stop someone from using an ability of the permanent you plan to tap. [D'Angelo 1998/06/03] It can be used to make a player use the ability now or to not use it. For example, you can use the Icy on your opponent's Prodigal Sorcerer and force them to use it or let it get tapped. Then you can play a 6/1 Ball Lightning, knowing the creature will at least live long enough to damage your opponent.
- If you want to stop someone from attacking with a creature by using this card, you must do so before attackers are declared. You cannot wait until after attackers are declared and then try to use it to make a creature stop attacking. [D'Angelo 1998/06/03] Note that your opponent cannot start declaring attackers without letting you use the Icy.
- Tapping an attacking creature which did not tap to attack does not remove the creature from the attack or cause the creature to stop dealing damage. [D'Angelo 1998/06/03]
- Any cards which might trigger off a card becoming tapped will trigger. Thus, a Psychic Venom on a land that becomes tapped will cause 2 damage. [D'Angelo 1995/03/12]
- Can target a tapped card, but tapping a tapped card does nothing useful. [Duelist Magazine #5, Page 23] And it will not trigger "if the card becomes tapped" effects.
- Vintage tournaments (see Rule 801) restricted this card from 1994/01/25 to 1994/03/23.
