What it does

Bargain (You may sacrifice an artifact, enchantment, or token as you cast this spell.)

Search your library for a card, exile it face down, then shuffle. If this spell was bargained, you may cast the exiled card without paying its mana cost if that spell's mana value is 4 or less. Put the exiled card into your hand if it wasn't cast this way.

Rulings

5 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2023-09-01

    Bargain represents an optional additional cost. A spell cast with that additional cost paid is "bargained."

  • 2023-09-01

    Some instant and sorcery spells require additional targets if they're bargained. You ignore those targeting requirements if those spells aren't bargained, and you can't bargain those spells unless you can choose the appropriate targets. On the other hand, you can bargain a permanent spell even if you won't be able to choose targets for an enters-the-battlefield ability of that permanent once the spell resolves.

  • 2023-09-01

    Bargain means "As an additional cost to cast this spell, you may sacrifice an artifact, enchantment, or token."

  • 2023-09-01

    If you copy a bargained spell, the copy is also bargained. If a card or token enters the battlefield as a copy of a permanent that's already on the battlefield, the new permanent isn't bargained, even if the original was.

  • 2023-09-01

    You may sacrifice only one artifact, enchantment, or token to pay a spell's bargain cost.

Every version of Beseech the Mirror

5 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly — a printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall genuinely publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Beseech the Mirror — a name search across every version, for the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only — no individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
