Title: Miracle question
Post by: Richardalcala on May 25, 2012, 01:12:02 PM
Ok so how was ALexander hayne able to {think twice} or {thought scour} on the other players turn for a miracle that he couldn't play untill his turn cause most of them are sorcery. This has been racking my brain.

The only thing I can think of is if it is a miracle it is an instant. I swear he would {terminus} on the other players turn {entreat the angels} and {temporal mastery}. That was part of his whole strategy.

Miracle says that you may cast it when you draw it. It ignores whether or not it is an Instant or Sorcery. So you could cast Miracle Sorceries on your opponent's turn if you use an Instant to draw it

Just from the wording, it definitely looks like you could cast it on their turn. From personal experience, one of my friends has {Brainstormed} his way to a {Devestation Tide} just before I attacked. It's pretty annoying, but it works

Confirmed.  Miracle casting gets around sorcery timing because of the wording.

 Yall might have been thinking of Flashback. Where it has the same speed as whatever it is.
