What it does

Strategic Coordinator — Basic lands you control have "T: Add . Spend this mana only on costs that contain X."

Rulings

4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2022-10-07

    You can spend mana generated by the granted ability on a cost that includes X even if you've chosen an X of 0, or if the card specifies that you can spend only colored mana on X. (You'll have to spend the {C}{C} on a different part of that cost, of course.)

  • 2022-10-07

    A "cost that contains X" may be a spell's total cost, an activated ability's cost, a cost to perform a special action, or a cost you're asked to pay as part of the resolution of a spell or ability (such as Condescend). A spell's total cost includes either its mana cost (printed in the upper right corner) or its alternative cost (such as flashback), as well as any additional costs (such as kicker). If it's something you can spend mana on, it's a cost. If that cost includes the X symbol in it, you can spend mana generated by the granted ability on that cost.

  • 2022-10-07

    You can spend mana generated by the granted ability on any part of a cost that contains X. You're not limited to spending it only on the X part.

  • 2022-10-07

    You don't have to spend all of the mana on the same cost.

Every version of Nexos

2 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 Nexos — 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.
