About Devouring Light

Devouring Light, Instant, designed by Pete Venters first released in Oct, 2005 in the set Ravnica: City of Guilds and was printed exactly in 9 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.98.

A deck that focuses on white weenie aggro strategies would benefit from including Devouring Light, as it provides efficient removal for attacking or blocking creatures while also potentially being cast for a reduced cost through convoke. However, in a competitive environment, cards like Path to Exile or Swords to Plowshares may be considered better options due to their versatility and lower mana cost, making Devouring Light less likely to see play in top-tier decks.

Rules

03/19/21

If a creature you control has a mana ability with in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell’s costs. You won’t be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won’t be on the battlefield when you pay the spell’s costs, so you won’t be able to tap it for convoke.

03/19/21

You can tap any untapped creature you control to convoke a spell, even one you haven’t controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.

10/05/18

Tapping a multicolored creature using convoke will pay for or one mana of your choice of any of that creature’s colors.
