Flash is a powerful card that can be beneficial in decks focusing on fast creature deployment or combo strategies in Magic: the Gathering. Decks that can take advantage of putting creatures onto the battlefield at instant speed, such as in response to an opponent's actions or to surprise the opponent with a game-winning creature, would benefit from using Flash. While there may be other cards that offer similar effects, Flash's flexibility and efficiency make it a strong contender for inclusion in certain decks, especially those looking to exploit its unique ability to cheat creatures into play at reduced cost. Overall, Flash should definitely see play in decks that can capitalize on its instant creature deployment potential.
Rules
03/16/2018
If the creature has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
03/16/2018
If you choose not to pay, the creature is sacrificed immediately. No player will get priority in between the creature entering the battlefield and being sacrificed. Sacrificing the creature this way will trigger any abilities that trigger when it leaves the battlefield, and those abilities will be put onto the stack at the same time as those that triggered when it entered the battlefield.
03/16/2018
Only the generic mana in that creature's mana cost is reduced. For example, if that creature's mana cost is {1}{R}, you'll have to pay {R} to keep it.
03/16/2018
The creature enters the battlefield, so it will trigger enters-the-battlefield abilities even if you choose not to pay.
