Rulings

6 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2021-02-05

    Snow is a supertype, not a card type. It has no rules meaning or function by itself, but spells and abilities may refer to it.

  • 2021-02-05

    The S symbol is a generic mana symbol. It represents a cost that can be paid by one mana that was produced by a snow source. That mana can be any color or colorless.

  • 2021-02-05

    The Kaldheim set doesn't have any cards with mana costs that include S, but some previous sets do. If an effect says such a spell costs 1 less to cast, that reduction doesn't apply to any S costs. This is also true for activated abilities that include S in their activation costs and effects that reduce those costs.

  • 2021-02-05

    Some cards have additional effects for each S spent to cast them. You can cast these spells even if you don't spend any snow mana to cast them; their additional effects simply won't do anything.

  • 2021-02-05

    Snow isn't a type of mana. If an effect says you may spend mana as though it were any type, you can't pay for S using mana that wasn't produced by a snow source.

  • 2021-02-05

    In a Limited event (usually Booster Draft or Sealed Deck), you can't add basic snow lands to your card pool as you would other basic lands. You can play with basic snow lands only if you open them in your sealed deck or draft them.

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

Every version of Snow-Covered Forest

10 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 Snow-Covered Forest — 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.
