Title: Temporal mastery + dual casting
Post by: Jbombard51 on May 30, 2012, 09:39:37 AM
If you copy temporal mastery this way, would you get 2 more turns? I'm guessing no because of the verbage  -- but if yes, question B: would it work the same with a miracle draw? I'm hoping that this isn't dual cast-able due to the obnoxious factor it could bring.

{Temporal Mastery}, {Dual Casting}

Yes you would be able to copy it because you control the spell, so yes you would get 2 turns after the current one. And yes you can copy the miracle casting of it (remember, the miracle cost is just an alternate cost, it doesn't change the spell in any way other than speed if it is a sorcery).

The wording of Temporal Master is the reason why it is able to give you multiple turns if copied or multiple ones are cast. If it said "Take a second turn after this one" it would be different.

{Dual Casting}
For every copy of Mastery you'll get that many extra turns plus the original cast. It doesn't matter how it was cast.

So in theory, you could whip off 5 turns for UBRRRR mid-later game, possibly more if you draw more Temp's ? Seems not right to me logically since you're copying a spell that states "take another turn after this one"; to me that's like the wife telling me to " mow lawn tomorrow" twice in one day, but the end result only resolves once.  I guess I'm over thinking this (or just a little ignorant on this vernacular )

You need to tap the creature to make a copy too. If you have a way to untap it, you can't make tons o copies.

Think of it like your wife giving you your regular beer, then saying "have an extra beer." "Now have another extra beer." you should be holding three beers
