About Otaria
Otaria, Plane — dominaria, designed by Charles Urbach first released in Sep, 2009 in the set Planechase Planes and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
This card, Otaria, would benefit a control deck that focuses on casting and recasting powerful instant and sorcery spells from the graveyard, allowing for additional turns to further control the game. While Otaria can be useful in certain strategies, there are better cards like Snapcaster Mage or Time Warp that offer more immediate value or stronger effects, making Otaria less likely to see play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.
Rules
03/19/21
A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.
03/19/21
If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it’s legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.
03/19/21
If a split card gains flashback, you pay only the cost of the half you’re casting.
03/19/21
If you cast a spell with flashback, you can’t pay any alternative costs such as overload costs. You can pay additional costs such as kicker costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the spell with flashback.
03/19/21
You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card’s type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.
10/01/09
A plane card is treated as if its text box included “When you roll , put this card on the bottom of its owner’s planar deck face down, then move the top card of your planar deck off that planar deck and turn it face up.” This is called the “planeswalking ability.”
10/01/09
As a spell cast with flashback resolves, it never goes to its owner’s graveyard, so abilities that trigger on cards being put in a graveyard won’t trigger. The card is exiled instead.
10/01/09
If you roll multiple times in the same turn, you’ll take that many extra turns after this one.
10/01/09
If you use a card’s flashback ability, you’re actually casting that card. It moves from your graveyard to the stack. Abilities that trigger when you cast a spell will trigger. That spell can be countered.
10/01/09
If you use the flashback ability granted by Otaria to cast a split card from your graveyard, the flashback cost you pay is equal to the mana cost of the half that you’re casting.
10/01/09
Otaria may cause an instant or sorcery card in a graveyard to have multiple flashback abilities. Its owner may cast it using any one of those abilities.
10/01/09
The controller of a face-up plane card is the player designated as the “planar controller.” Normally, the planar controller is whoever the active player is. However, if the current planar controller would leave the game, instead the next player in turn order that wouldn’t leave the game becomes the planar controller, then the old planar controller leaves the game. The new planar controller retains that designation until they leave the game or a different player becomes the active player, whichever comes first.
