Sage of the Skies
{2}{W}
Creature — Human Monk
Oracle Text
When you cast this spell, if you've cast another spell this turn, copy this spell. (The copy becomes a token.)
Flying, lifelink
Watch Out
Cast trigger fires even if counteredWatch Out
This triggers when the spell is cast, before it resolves. Even if the spell is countered, the cast trigger still resolves. Copies of spells are not cast, so they won't trigger this.
Layer ordering affects the final resultWatch Out
This card involves continuous effects applied in layer order. Type changes (layer 4) are applied before ability changes (layer 6) and P/T changes (layer 7). The order matters — a creature that loses abilities in layer 6 can still get new abilities from effects applied later in the same layer.
