Radagast of Rhosgobel
Legendary Creature — Avatar Wizard
The first creature spell you cast each turn costs less to cast and can be cast as though it had flash.
"Perhaps you have heard of my good cousin Radagast who lives near the southern borders of Mirkwood?" Gandalf asked. "Yes," said Beorn, "not a bad fellow as Wizards go, I believe."

If the first creature spell you cast in a turn has
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 , you could choose 2 as the value of X and pay to cast the spell. - 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
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.
- 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
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
The cost reduction can apply to alternative costs.
- 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.
