About Baral's Expertise

Baral's Expertise, Sorcery, designed by Todd Lockwood first released in Jan, 2017 in the set Aether Revolt Promos and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It's a key card in 3 combos.

Baral's Expertise would benefit control decks looking to disrupt their opponents' board state while also gaining an additional spell for free. However, there are better options such as Cyclonic Rift, which offers a more versatile and powerful board wipe effect. While Baral's Expertise can be situationally useful, it may not see as much play compared to other more impactful cards in the format.

Rules

04/18/17

The converted mana cost of a split card is determined by the combined mana cost of its two halves. If an expertise spell allows you to cast a split card, you may cast either half or, if that split card has fuse, both halves.

02/09/17

A card’s converted mana cost is determined solely by the mana symbols printed in its upper right corner. The converted mana cost is the total amount of mana in that cost, regardless of color. For example, a card with mana cost has converted mana cost 3. Ignore any alternative costs, additional costs, cost increases, or cost reductions that could apply to it. A card with no mana cost has a converted mana cost of 0.

02/09/17

Effects that allow you to “cast” a card don’t allow you to play a land card.

02/09/17

The card that you cast may be an artifact or creature that was returned to your hand by this spell.

02/09/17

While you’re casting your free spell, the Expertise spell is still on the stack. It will be put into its owner’s graveyard after the free spell is cast. The free spell can’t target the Expertise card in your graveyard. It can target the Expertise spell on the stack, but the Expertise spell will become an illegal target before the free spell resolves.
