Whenever you cast a spell, if the amount of mana spent to cast that spell is greater than Liberator's power, put a +1/+1 counter on Liberator.

    The third ability applies only to casting spells. It does not, for example, change when you may activate abilities that can be activated "only as a sorcery."

  • 2022-10-14

    The last ability cares only about the amount of mana that was actually spent to cast the spell, regardless of its mana cost.

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

Every version of Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter

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 Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter — 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.
