Kaya's Guile

First printed in Modern Horizons (2019)

Kaya's Guile

Instant

Choose two —
• Each opponent sacrifices a creature of their choice.
• Exile all opponents' graveyards.
• Create a 1/1 white and black Spirit creature token with flying.
• You gain 4 life.
Entwine 3 generic (Choose all if you pay the entwine cost.)

Illustrated by
Jason Rainville

Legality

Rulings (4)

  • As the first mode is performed, first the opponent whose turn it is (or, if it’s not an opponent’s turn, the next opponent in turn order) chooses a creature they control, then each other opponent in turn order does the same, knowing the choices made before them. Then all the chosen creatures are sacrificed at the same time.
  • If Kaya’s Guile isn’t entwined, you must choose two different modes.
  • Each chosen mode is performed in the order specified. Abilities that trigger while one mode is being performed won’t be put onto the stack until Kaya’s Guile has finished resolving.
  • A creature sacrificed for the first mode of Kaya’s Guile will be exiled if it ends up in an opponent’s graveyard and the second mode was also chosen.
