I'd like to hear if anybody got to play a miracle card yet, and how they went about doing it. I had kind of a bad experience with it during pre-release. The guy was able to miracle twice in 3 games. The second time he did it, he untapped, drew, played a land, and then said, "oh! I just drew this!" and then played it. A little fishy to me. Oh well. Just let me know how you guys went about playing your miracle card.
It has to be done as SOON as you draw after your upkeep.
I understand it as a trigger that ends once the draw phase is finished. Others say that you can play it during anytime of your turn as long as you keep the card you drew seperate from your other cards in your hand.
*shrugs* IDK
Once he played a land he voids the miracle don't know if he mixed the card in with his hand that voids it too he would have to have shown it to
You as soon as
He drew it for it
To be valid
-I used temporal mastery as a miracle. That's what it is!!! Well, you can cast it in any turn if it was a sorcery in an opponents turn you know you can't used it, the miracle effect is waste. To make the miracle effect work it has to be the first card card in any turn that you draw. If you draw a card in an opponents turn and it's the first one you can use it if is a instant.

Even if it's not instant you can cast it on your opponent turn or it's miracle cost
Since you can cast it right away if it's the first card you drew this turn
Sorceries can't be cast during your upkeep either don't know if u knew that but miracle overrides that

That's right you can cast a sorcery only in the 2 main phase
Yeah I haven't played any miracle cards yet, but I'm sure I wouldn't put in my hand, play a land, and then tell you I drew it. It kinda pissed me off, because it cost me the game both times.
Why didnt u call the judge

Meh. I don't know. I guess I should have. I guess I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, or make the dude feel like I was calling him lire. Figured I'd just rant about it later on imtg. Lol!

My bad that was you??
Jkjk
Prereleases are tough. Everyone is playing with new cards for the first time. It's supposed to be a big fun thing, but it's still an official event. There's still prizes and rankings on the line.
My friend did the same to me, it didn't save his life, but I let him get away with it. We're all so close at the shop I play at, I know he would have done the same for me. I do tend to be more aware and may not have made the mistake, but of i did, he would have responded in kind. Outside of my shop or at a larger event, I would have called a judge.
I reveal a miracle when I draw the decide if I want to play it. Judge said it made sense to him.

There's nothing against that in the rules. Just don't expect to play it for the miracle cost later in the turn, obviously.
I don't see Why u would reveal if not playing it right when u draw
Well, say you draw the green card that is miracle instant that is like a super giant growth, you reveal it to your opponent. Now it's your attack phase. You've got 3 attackers, and hes got 2 blockers. Can you play the miracle card after blockers are declared?

sure as long as it is an instant and you are paying FULL price
You're paying full price for it if it's an instant and he knows u have it so why did u reveal it again?
Well that's what I'm wondering. If you reveal it when you draw it, can you wait to play it during attack for miracle cost?

You only ever get one time to cast it as a miracle and that is right when you draw it.

or more specificly
The latest reminder text for Miracle reads You may cast this card for its Miracle cost WHEN YOU DRAW IT if it's the first card you drew this turn.

Exactly! Just read the card and do what it says, not what you think/want it to say. 😜
Ok say I keep an opening hand with an entreat the Angelshow would I go about paying that dual x mana cost non miracle that's what's confusing me

You start by choosing a value for X. Say you declare X=2. Then you pay (2)(2)WWW or 4WWW. When it resolves, you get two 4/4 angels.
Ok then why did they make it a dual X instead of a single X like the sun zeniths instead of confusing people

If they gave you one 4/4 flier for every one mana, well that's pretty broken.
So far you are the only one that I've heard from that is confused.
Just sayin'.
