About Alms

Alms, Enchantment, designed by Rogério Vilela first released in Jun, 1997 in the set Weatherlight. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.46.

This card, Alms, would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on protecting key creatures from damage, such as a white weenie or aggro deck that aims to maintain board presence. However, there are better options available like Mother of Runes or Giver of Runes, which provide more versatile and consistent protection for creatures. Alms may not see much play in competitive decks due to its limited effect and mana cost compared to more efficient alternatives.

Rules

04/01/08

If an effect or rule puts two or more cards into the same graveyard at the same time, the owner of those cards may arrange them in any order.

04/01/08

Say you’re the owner of both a permanent and an Aura that’s attached to it. If both the permanent and the Aura are destroyed at the same time (by Akroma’s Vengeance, for example), you decide the order they’re put into your graveyard. If just the enchanted permanent is destroyed, it’s put into your graveyard first. Then, after state-based actions are checked, the Aura (which is no longer attached to anything) is put into your graveyard on top of it.

The “top” card of your graveyard is the card that was put there most recently.
