UnCommander Rulings

UnCommander-only cards are cards that are not included in the Commander format but are included in UnCommander. For details on handling banned cards, see the relevant section of the UnCommander Rules List.

Note that the value chosen for X will still affect the spell’s converted mana cost as normal.

If the chosen nonland card is a planeswalker card, the planeswalker will enter the battlefield with a number of loyalty counters equal to the number printed on its loyalty characteristic in its lower right corner, as normal.

Sorcery
Lose 10 life: Choose any spell in Magic when Wish is cast. Wish acts as an exact copy of that spell, including color. If you choose a creature card, put a token into play with all of the characteristics of the creature card. If you choose an artifact or enchantment, use a token to represent the card. This token is affected by spells and abilities that affect the chosen card type. If there is an X in the spell’s casting cost, X can be any number up to 5.

On an unrelated note, it bothers me more than it probably should that the position of the blue and white orbs in the art should be reversed to make a consistent color wheel. As this is D&D, I suppose they might have wanted to have white and black on opposite ends, constructing a sort of alignment scale with neutral green in the middle. Alright, that’s enough of a tangent.
