Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge

Flying When Jeleva enters, each player exiles the top X cards of their library, where X is the amount of mana spent to cast Jeleva. Whenever Jeleva attacks, you may cast an instant or sorcery spell from among cards exiled with Jeleva without paying its mana cost.

  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    If the card has in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as its value.
  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    If you cast an instant or sorcery card using Jeleva's last ability, you do so while that ability is resolving. If you choose not to (or you can't), you won't get a chance to cast it later unless the ability triggers again.
  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't pay alternative costs such as overload costs. However, you can pay additional costs such as kicker costs. If the card has mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.
  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    When casting an instant or sorcery card this way, ignore all timing restrictions based on the card's type. Other timing restrictions, such as "Cast [this spell] only during combat," must be followed.
  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    The card is cast before blocking creatures are declared.
  • WWizards of the Coast2013-10-17
    Official Ruling
    If Jeleva leaves the battlefield, the exiled cards will remain exiled indefinitely. If Jeleva enters the battlefield again, it won't be associated with the cards the "other" Jeleva exiled. The new Jeleva will exile a new set of cards. Only those cards can be cast using Jeleva's last ability.
  • WWizards of the Coast2014-02-01
    Official Ruling
    The amount of mana you spent to cast this creature is usually equal to its mana value. However, you also include any additional costs you pay, including the cost imposed for casting your commander from the command zone.
  • WWizards of the Coast2014-02-01
    Official Ruling
    You can't choose to pay extra mana to cast a creature spell unless something instructs you to.
  • WWizards of the Coast2014-02-01
    Official Ruling
    If Jeleva enters the battlefield without being cast, then no mana was spent to cast it. This means X will be 0, so no cards will be exiled.
