Whenever a card is put into your graveyard, remove that card from the game.
  • The "if you can't" in the first ability refers to putting the card in your hand, as well as being unable to choose a card. Thus, if you cannot choose a card during resolution, you lose the game. [D'Angelo 1999/07/03]

  • There are currently no cards that get around this card blocking players from gaining life. [Aahz 1997/02/16]
  • It will not stop a life-giving effect from being altered by replacement abilities. Thus, if you have Lich in play when you play Healing Salve to gain 3 life, the replacement effect of the Lich will take place and cause there to be no life gain for Forsaken Wastes to affect. [D'Angelo 1999/07/10]

When Bazaar of Wonders comes into play, remove all cards in all graveyards from the game.
Whenever a spell is played, counter it if a card with the same name is in play or in any graveyard.
  • Because it only looks in play and in the graveyard, you can cast several of the same spell in the same stack of spells/abilities. This is because a spell which has been announced but has not yet resolved is on the stack and is not checked. [D'Angelo 1999/07/10]
  • The Bazaar of Wonders only looks at a spell just after the spell is announced, so if a card of the same name goes to the graveyard after announcement but before that spell resolves, the spell will not be countered.

  • Affects all creatures that end up blocking it, including ones that are members of bands. [bethmo 1996/09/17]

  • If a Clone is played, you pay the Clone's mana cost (reduced by up to {2}), and not the new form's cost. [DeLaney 2000/03/31]

  • The card does not go to the graveyard before being put on the library. [bethmo 1997/10/19]
  • If the spell is not countered (because the spell it targets cannot be countered), then it does not go to its owner's library. [D'Angelo 2001/04/16]
  • This card has a self replacement (see Rule 419.6c). This means that it replaces going to the graveyard before any other effect can replace that event. [Rules Team 2001/05/01] If Flashback is applied using Recoup, however, Flashback will change the destination. [DeLaney 2001/10/13]

  • It can be used to change a land's type from one basic land type to another. For example, a Forest can be change to an Island so it produces blue mana. [8E FAQ 2003/07/28]
  • If you respond to your opponent's use of this spell with another use so that the color word changes before the opponent's resolves, the opponent's will do nothing since no instances of the words they chose will be there. [bethmo 1996/11/05]
  • You can play this spell on a permanent which has no color or land words on it. It doesn't do anything useful, but it is legal to do. [D'Angelo 2000/10/14]

81. Political Trickery

Sorcery 2U (3) Mirage (Rare)

82. Polymorph

Sorcery 3U (4) Mirage (Rare)
Bury target creature. That creature's controller reveals cards from the top of his or her library until a creature card is revealed and then puts that creature into play under his or her control as though it were just played. The player shuffles all other revealed cards into his or her library.

Interrupt XU (1) Mirage (Common)
Counter target spell unless that spell's caster pays an additional {X}. That player draws and pays all mana from lands and mana pool until {X} is paid; he or she may also draw and 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]

Untap target creature an opponent controls and gain control of it until end of turn. That creature is unaffected by summoning sickness this turn. Tap the creature if you lose control of it at end of this turn.
  • 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.
