  • Adamant effects check what mana was actually spent to cast a spell. If an effect allows you to spend mana "as though it were mana" of any color or type, that allows you to spend mana you couldn't otherwise spend, but it doesn't change what mana you spent to cast the spell.

  • If an instant or sorcery spell has an adamant ability, you perform the spell's instructions in order. You don't perform the adamant instruction before the spell resolves or before any other effects printed above it.

    Oct 4, 2019 · Wizards of the Coast
  • If you copy a spell that has an adamant ability, no mana was spent to cast the copy at all, so that ability won't apply.

  • If at least three black mana was spent to cast Foreboding Fruit, you'll create a Food, even if you have another player draw two cards and lose 2 life.

    Oct 4, 2019 · Wizards of the Coast
  • If an effect allows you to cast a spell without paying its mana cost, you can't choose to cast it and pay unless another rule or effect allows you to cast that spell for a cost. Similarly, you can't waive a cost reduction unless that effect says you may.

    Oct 4, 2019 · Wizards of the Coast
  • You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.

  • Some spells and abilities that create Food tokens may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Food tokens.

    Nov 8, 2024 · Wizards of the Coast
  • Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.

  • Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
