What it does

Draw a card if an opponent has cast a blue or black spell this turn. Spells you control can't be countered this turn. You and permanents you control gain hexproof from blue and from black until end of turn. (You and they can't be the targets of blue or black spells or abilities your opponents control.)

Rulings

3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2019-07-12

    A spell or ability that counters spells can still target your spells after Veil of Summer resolves. When that spell or ability resolves, your spell won't be countered, but any additional effects of the countering spell or ability will still happen.

  • 2019-07-12

    If your opponents have cast more than one blue or black spell, you still draw only one card as Veil of Summer resolves.

  • 2019-07-12

    Veil of Summer has no effect until it resolves. It can be countered.

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

Every version of Veil of Summer

8 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 Veil of Summer — 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.
