Bulk Up

Instant MV 2

Tracked across real Commander games played through TurnZero HQ.

What it does

Double target creature's power until end of turn.

Flashback 4 (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)

Rulings

7 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2024-11-08

    You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card's type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using flashback only when you could normally cast a sorcery.

  • 2024-11-08

    "Flashback [cost]" means "You may cast this card from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost" and "If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack."

  • 2024-11-08

    A spell cast using flashback will always be exiled afterward, whether it resolves, is countered, or leaves the stack in some other way.

  • 2024-11-08

    If a card with flashback is put into your graveyard during your turn, you can cast it if it's legal to do so before any other player can take any actions.

  • 2024-11-08

    You can cast a spell using flashback even if it was somehow put into your graveyard without having been cast.

  • 2024-11-08

    To double a creature's power, that creature gets +X/+0, where X is that creature's power when Bulk Up resolves.

  • 2024-11-08

    To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a flashback cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of Bulk Up

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 Bulk Up — 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.
