About Kumena's Awakening

Kumena's Awakening, Enchantment, designed by Zack Stella first released in Jan, 2018 in the set Rivals of Ixalan Promos and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.77.

A deck that focuses on controlling the board and generating a high number of permanents would benefit from Kumena's Awakening, particularly in a multiplayer setting where card draw is crucial. However, there are better options for card draw in blue, such as Rhystic Study or Mystic Remora, which are more efficient and don't require the city's blessing condition. While Kumena's Awakening could see play in a deck that can reliably achieve the city's blessing, it may not be the most optimal choice compared to other card draw options available.

Rules

01/19/18

If you cast a spell with ascend, you don’t get the city’s blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city’s blessing.

01/19/18

If your tenth permanent enters the battlefield and then a permanent leaves the battlefield immediately afterwards (most likely due to the “Legend Rule” or due to being a creature with 0 toughness), you get the city’s blessing before it leaves the battlefield.

01/19/18

Once you have the city’s blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city’s blessing isn’t a permanent itself and can’t be removed by any effect.

01/19/18

Some cards have triggered abilities that check if you have the city’s blessing, but don’t use an intervening “if” clause. These abilities trigger regardless of whether you have the city’s blessing and check whether you do only as they resolve.
