Volzar, the Lightning Rod

Volzar, the Lightning Rod

If you control an aura permanent with Sigil in its name, this costs resource less to activate.

Once per Turn Instant - resource: Amp X, where X is the number of Lightning cards you've played this turn.

Rulings

From the Rosetta + 1st Strike release notes
  • The value of X is based on how many lightning cards you’ve played this turn when Volzar’s activated ability layer resolves on the stack, not when you first activate it.
  • The value of X for Amp X will not increase if you were to play additional lightning cards between resolving Volzar’s activated ability and applying the Amp X to the next time you would deal arcane damage.
  • Auras become permanent when they enter the arena. Aura permanents with sigil in their name that were added as defending cards to a chain link do not count towards meeting the if-condition of Volzar’s first ability.
