What it does
Spells you cast but don't own cost 1 less to cast.
Whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a player, look at the top card of that player's library, then exile it face down. You may play that card for as long as it remains exiled, and mana of any type can be spent to cast that spell.
Rulings
4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2024-04-12
Playing an exiled card causes it to leave exile. You can’t play it multiple times.
- 2024-04-12
You may look at and play cards exiled face down with Gonti’s last ability (and spend mana of any type to do so) even if Gonti leaves the battlefield. If another player gains control of Gonti, that player can’t look at or play cards already exiled with Gonti, and you still can.
- 2024-04-12
If you leave the game, any remaining face-down exiled cards remain exiled face down indefinitely. No player may look at them.
- 2024-04-12
You pay all costs and follow all normal timing rules for cards played from exile with Gonti’s last ability. For example, if the exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
