Official rulings

Seven official rulings apply to Silverquill Lecturer, newest first.

  • Resolving copies of permanent spells become tokens as they enter the battlefield. These tokens are not considered "created" when this happens.
  • If you cast a spell with demonstrate and both you and an opponent copy it, the opponent's copy will resolve first, then your copy will resolve, and finally the original spell will resolve.
  • You choose whether to make a copy as the demonstrate ability resolves. This happens before the original spell resolves. Your copy goes on the stack above the original spell.
  • If you cast the spell and choose not to copy it, no opponent will get to copy it either.
  • If you copy a spell with demonstrate, you then immediately choose an opponent. If they copy the spell, it goes on top of the stack.
  • If any additional or alternative costs were paid to cast the spell with demonstrate, the copies will see those choices as well. For example, if the spell has a kicker ability and was kicked, the copies will also be kicked
  • If the spell had an X value chosen for it as it was cast, the copies will have the same value of X.
