Rulings
2 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2021-03-19
Because targets are chosen for activated abilities before costs (such as "Sacrifice an artifact") are paid, Goblin Engineer's second ability can't target the artifact that will be sacrificed to pay its cost.
- 2021-03-19
If a card in a player's graveyard has X in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
