Rulings

6 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2019-08-23

    K'rrik's last ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

  • 2019-08-23

    K'rrik's ability doesn't modify or reduce costs you pay. It changes only how you may pay those costs.

  • 2019-08-23

    You can't pay 2 life to pay for generic mana in costs you pay, even if an effect says that you must spend black mana to pay that generic mana.

  • 2019-08-23

    If a cost contains a mana symbol that may be paid in multiple ways, such as B/R, B/P, or 2/B, you choose how you'll pay it before you do so. If you choose to pay this way, K'rrik's ability allows you to pay life rather than pay that mana.

  • 2024-06-07

    A Phyrexian mana symbol contributes 1 toward the mana value of a card, even if life is paid for it. Specifically, K'rrik's mana value is always 7.

  • 2024-06-07

    K'rrik's ability lets you pay 2 life for  in any cost you pay, including the mana costs of spells, activation costs, and even costs for special actions (such as morph). Any time you pay mana, that's a cost.
