About Wild Evocation

Wild Evocation, Enchantment, designed by Chippy first released in Jul, 2010 in the set Magic 2011. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 174.00.

Wild Evocation can be a valuable addition to a chaos-themed deck that aims to disrupt opponents' strategies and create unpredictable game states. While it may not be a competitive staple due to its randomness, it can provide entertaining and unexpected moments in casual play. As for better alternatives, cards like Possibility Storm or Knowledge Pool offer similar chaotic effects with more control over the outcomes, making them potentially more impactful choices for decks looking to capitalize on unpredictability.

Rules

08/15/10

If a player casts a nonland card revealed with Wild Evocation’s ability, it’s put on the stack as a spell, then Wild Evocation’s ability finishes resolving. The spell will then resolve as normal, after players get a chance to cast spells and activate abilities.

08/15/10

If a player reveals a nonland card, that player must cast that card if it’s possible to do so, even if they don’t want to. The player casts it as part of the resolution of Wild Evocation’s ability. Timing restrictions based on the card’s type (such as creature or sorcery) are ignored. Other play restrictions are not (such as “Cast [this card] only during combat”).

08/15/10

If, as the result of Wild Evocation’s ability, a player casts a card “without paying its mana cost,” any X in the mana cost will be 0, and that player can’t pay any alternative costs (such as Demon of Death’s Gate’s alternative cost). On the other hand, if the card has optional additional costs (such as kicker or multikicker), the player may pay those.
