Rulings[]
- Q: How do you use Soulshift?
- A: When you summon a creature with Soulshift, that creature's cost is reduced for the cost of the evolution bait. For example, when the evolution creature's cost is 11 and the bait's cost is 5, the evolution creature costs 6 to summon.
- Q: What happens if the creature costs 0 to summon?
- A: It cannot cost less than 1, so if it costs 0 you summon it by paying 1 mana.
- Q: Does the evolution bait's civilization count towards the mana cost?
- A: No, it does not count. If you summon a light creature with Soulshift, you may choose a water creature as an evolution bait. If you do you only need to tap at least 1 light card in your mana zone but you may choose to not tap the water cards.
