Collective Inferno

Offizielle Rulings 7

1. 17.11.2025

   If a creature you control has a mana ability with in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for convoke.

2. 17.11.2025

   If another effect (or effects) modifies how much damage a source you control of the chosen type would deal (for example, by preventing some of that damage), the player being dealt damage or the controller of the permanent being dealt damage chooses the order in which any such effects, including the effect of Collective Inferno's last ability, apply. If all of the damage is prevented before the effect of Collective Inferno's last ability would apply, its effect no longer applies.

3. 17.11.2025

   Tapping an untapped creature that's attacking or blocking to convoke a spell won't cause that creature to stop attacking or blocking.

4. 17.11.2025

   The damage is dealt by the same source as the original source of damage. The doubled damage isn't dealt by Collective Inferno unless (in a very unusual case) it was the original source of damage.

5. 17.11.2025

   If damage dealt is being divided or assigned among multiple permanents or players, that damage is divided or assigned before any effects modify how much damage would be dealt. For example, say you control Collective Inferno and you attack an opponent with a 5/5 creature of the chosen type with trample and haste. If it's blocked by a 2/2 creature, you can assign 2 damage to the blocker and 3 damage to the defending player. Those amounts are then doubled to 4 and 6, respectively.

6. 17.11.2025

   You can tap any untapped creature you control to convoke a spell, even one you haven't controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.

7. 17.11.2025

   When calculating a spell's total cost, include any alternative costs, additional costs, or anything else that increases or reduces the cost to cast the spell. Convoke applies after the total cost is calculated. Convoke doesn't change a spell's mana cost or mana value.
