A deck that focuses on playing multiple creatures in a single turn, such as a token deck or a deck with a lot of cheap creatures, would benefit from using Sweet-Gum Recluse. The ability to put +1/+1 counters on multiple creatures can quickly boost their power and toughness, making them more threatening on the battlefield. While there may be other cards with similar effects, the versatility of Sweet-Gum Recluse with flash and cascade makes it a strong contender for decks looking to swarm the board with creatures and pump them up for a powerful attack. This card could definitely see play in the right deck strategy.

Rules

03/19/21

Cascade triggers when you cast the spell, meaning that it resolves before that spell. If you end up casting the exiled card, it will go on the stack above the spell with cascade.

03/19/21

If a spell with cascade is countered, the cascade ability will still resolve normally.

03/19/21

If the last card exiled is a card with an Adventure, you may only cast the spell as an Adventure if that spell has a lesser mana cost than the spell with cascade.

03/19/21

If you cast a card “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the card.

03/19/21

The converted mana cost of a split card is determined by the combined mana cost of its two halves. If cascade allows you to cast a split card, you may cast either half but not both halves.

11/10/20

A permanent that wasn’t a creature as it entered the battlefield this turn but is currently a creature can be chosen as a target of Sweet-Gum Recluse’s last ability.

11/10/20

If you cast a spell “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the spell.

11/10/20

The converted mana cost of a spell with cascade is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

11/10/20

When the cascade ability resolves, you must exile cards. The only optional part of the ability is whether or not you cast the last card exiled.

11/10/20

You exile the cards face up. All players will be able to see them.
