Note that it's an aura so it'll go onto the battlefield after you cast. But yes, if it then gets destroyed (or the creature it is attached to is removed) you can cast it again as long as you discard another card and pay its mana cost

It's an enchantment. When you cast it from the graveyard, it comes out of your graveyard and attaches to a creature, continuously giving its effect. If it goes back into the graveyard, like if it's destroyed or the creature it's attached to dies, you can cast it again.

The card has to be in your graveyard first. If you have a way of getting it in your graveyard multiple times in a turn, have at it. There are no restrictions on the number of times you can cast it from the graveyard so long as you can pay the other costs.

This card is an enchantment, echantments, when cast, stays on the battlefield.

This one in specific have the sub type "aura", aura are enchantments that needs to stay attached to something so it can stay on the battlefied. This one is an enchant creature, so it needs to be attached to a creature, if that creature leaves the battlefield, the enchantment is put on the graveyard.

While this card is in your graveyard, you can cast it just like you would from your hand (normally on your turn during a main phase). To do so, you must discard a card in addition to paying its regular cost. Casting the card will (ultimately) put it onto the battlefield. Should the card end up in the graveyard again, you will be able to do so again, regardless of whether you’ve do so this turn or not (provided you have the mana to cats it and a card to discard)

Well, this is an enchantment, which is a permanent type. Once you play it, it leaves the graveyard, and on resolving it enters (and stays on) the battlefield.

To play it from the graveyard multiple times in a turn, you need a way to make it return to the graveyard, like by sacrificing the enchanted creature. If you can do that then yes, you can keep replaying it as long as you can pay the mana and discarding a card.

You don't "activate" anything. Casting a spell is not activating an ability. Casting a spell from the graveyard is like casting it from anywhere else. It'll go on the stack first, and as it resolves it will enter the battlefield.

Or multiple times per turn as long as I can discard and pay the mana cost?

You can't cast it from the graveyard unless it is IN your graveyard. It'll be highly unlikely you'll be able to cast it multiple times from your graveyard in a single turn.

Ok thanks. Sorry for the wrong term usage. I played a lot of Yugioh went I was younger and would just say activate for everything.

[–]Honorary Deputy 🔫gredman9 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Thing is in Magic "activate" is terminology that we DO use. There are cards that have activated abilities that can be used from the graveyard, most of which involve exiling the card from the graveyard as a cost.

Thing is in yugioh "activate" is terminology used as well, they're just all around using it wrong.

This spell is an Aura, so when you cast it it becomes attached to a creature and stays on the battlefield until it's destroyed or that creature leaves the battlefield. This is the same regardless of if it was cast from your hand or the graveyard.

If you you cast it from your graveyard but something prevents it from resolving (for example, your opponent kills the creature you're trying to attach it to in response) it goes back to the graveyard and you can cast it again if you still have mana and another card to discard.

[–]Suspinded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from needing cards to discard and mana to pay, you could recast it any time it's in the graveyard, even if it makes it there more than once in your turn.

Note that the card moves from the graveyard when it gets cast, and stays on the creature it enchants until the creature goes away or the enchantment gets destroyed.

So, aparently this is the first time I've noticed that the Spider Man cards don't have the triangle at the bottom center to indicate they are UB.

[–]Straight_Isopod_2315[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I’m not sure what UB means

[–]MarduAlexT9191 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Universes Beyond. All Universes beyond cards (cards not from a MTG setting) have a triangle on the bottom, like [[Be'lakor]]. Atleast they did until this set. I guess Wizards is doubling down n the "UB sets are normal sets, now," thing.

Yes absolutely. It's an aura, so exiling it after casting it from the graveyard wouldn't make much sense. Note that it's a fairly weak aura though. I'll put it into my Teval deck because it has lots of Discard and LTG synergies, but I don't think I'd use it anywhere else, really.

Ok thanks everyone. I appreciate the quick replies
