無節操な請負人 {2}{B}

Notes and Rules Information for 無節操な請負人:

• Only the English version of a Magic card receives Oracle updates and errata. View this card in English. (Scryfall note)
• You don’t choose a target for Unscrupulous Contractor’s ability at the time it triggers. Rather, a second “reflexive” ability triggers if you sacrifice a creature this way. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal. Notably, the triggered ability isn’t a crime, but the reflexive triggered ability potentially is. (2024-04-12)
• Plot abilities are written “Plot [cost],” which means “Any time you have priority during your main phase while the stack is empty, you may pay [cost] and exile this card from your hand. It becomes plotted.” (2024-04-12)
• Exiling a card using its plot ability is a special action. Once you announce you’re taking that action, no other player can respond by trying to remove that card from your hand. (2024-04-12)

• You can’t cast a plotted card on the same turn it became plotted. On any future turn, you may cast that card from exile without paying its mana cost during your main phase while the stack is empty. (2024-04-12)
• If you’re casting a plotted card from exile without paying its mana cost, you can’t choose to cast it for any other alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the plotted card has any mandatory additional costs, those must still be paid to cast the spell. (2024-04-12)
• If a plotted card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost. (2024-04-12)
