What it does

Choose a creature type. Draw a card for each permanent you control of that type.

Rulings

One official ruling, as Wizards published it.

  • 2008-04-01

    Note that this spell counts the number of permanents you control of the chosen type, not just the number of creatures you control. It will also take your kindred permanents of the chosen type into account.

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

Every version of Distant Melody

16 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 Distant Melody — 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.
