What it does

The first creature spell you cast each turn costs 2 less to cast and can be cast as though it had flash.

Rulings

7 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2026-06-29

    Radagast's ability can't reduce the amount of colored mana you pay for a spell. It reduces only the generic component of that cost.

  • 2026-06-29

    If the first creature spell you cast in a turn has X in its mana cost, you choose the value of X before calculating the spell's total cost. For example, if the first creature spell you cast in a turn has a mana cost of X, you could choose 2 as the value of X and pay to cast the spell.

  • 2026-06-29

    Radagast of Rhosgobel's ability will look at the entire turn, even if Radagast wasn't on the battlefield for some of it. Notably, if you cast Radagast of Rhosgobel in a turn, then no other creature spell you cast that turn can be your first.

  • 2026-06-29

    The cost reduction can apply to alternative costs.

  • 2026-06-29

    If there are additional costs to cast a spell, or if the cost to cast a spell is increased by an effect, apply those increases before applying cost reductions.

  • 2026-06-29

    The first creature spell you cast each turn doesn't necessarily have to be the first spell you cast. You could cast a sorcery spell and then cast a creature spell that would get the discount.

  • 2026-06-29

    Radagast of Rhosgobel's ability doesn't change the mana cost or mana value of any spell. It changes only the total cost you actually pay.

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

Every version of Radagast of Rhosgobel

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 Radagast of Rhosgobel — 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.
