About Nagging Thoughts
Nagging Thoughts, Sorcery, designed by Seb McKinnon first released in April 2016 in the set Shadows over Innistrad and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.34.
This card, Nagging Thoughts, would benefit a deck that focuses on graveyard synergies or card selection. Decks that utilize cards with madness mechanics or have ways to benefit from cards being in the graveyard would find this card useful. However, in competitive play, there are more efficient card selection options available, such as Opt or Serum Visions, which may make Nagging Thoughts less desirable in certain decks.
Rules
12/08/2022
A card with madness that's discarded counts as having been discarded even though it's put into exile rather than a graveyard. If it was discarded to pay a cost, that cost is still paid. Abilities that trigger when a card is discarded will still trigger.
12/08/2022
Cards are discarded in a Magic game only from a player's hand. Effects that put cards into a player's graveyard from anywhere else do not cause those cards to be discarded.
12/08/2022
Casting a spell with madness ignores the timing rules based on the card's card type. For example, you can cast a sorcery with madness if you discard it during an opponent's turn.
12/08/2022
If you choose not to cast a card with madness when the madness triggered ability resolves, it's put into your graveyard. Madness doesn't give you another chance to cast it later.
12/08/2022
If you discard a card with madness to pay the cost of a spell or activated ability, that card's madness triggered ability (and the spell that card becomes, if you choose to cast it) will resolve before the spell or ability the discard paid for.
12/08/2022
If you discard a card with madness while a spell or ability is resolving, it moves immediately to exile. Continue resolving that spell or ability, noting that the card you discarded is not in your graveyard at this time. Its madness triggered ability will be placed onto the stack once that spell or ability has completely resolved.
12/08/2022
Madness works independently of why you're discarding the card. You could discard it to pay a cost, because a spell or ability tells you to, or because you have too many cards in your hand during your cleanup step. You can't discard a card with madness just because you want to, though.
12/08/2022
To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a madness cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined by only its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast that spell was.
04/08/2016
A spell cast for its madness cost is put onto the stack like any other spell. It can be countered, copied, and so on. As it resolves, it’s put onto the battlefield if it’s a permanent card or into its owner’s graveyard if it’s an instant or sorcery card.
04/08/2016
If there is only one card left in your library, you’ll put it into your hand. You won’t lose the game for having zero cards in your library until you’re required to draw a card.
