**'''701.11a''' To play a [[land]] means to put it onto the [[battlefield]] from the [[zone]] it’s in (usually the [[hand]]). A [[player]] may play a land if he or she has priority, it’s the [[main phase]] of his or her turn, the stack is empty, and he or she hasn’t yet played a land this turn. Playing a land is a [[Special Action|special action]] (see rule 115), so it doesn’t use the [[stack]]; it simply happens. Putting a land onto the battlefield as the result of a [[spell]] or [[ability]] isn’t the same as playing a land. See rule 305, "Lands."
 
**'''701.11b''' To play a card means to play that card as a land or to cast that card as a spell, whichever is appropriate.
**'''701.11c''' Some effects instruct a player to "play" with a certain aspect of the game changed, such as "Play with the top card of your [[library]] revealed." "Play" in this sense means to play the Magic game.

**'''701.11e''' Previously, the action of using an [[activated ability]] was referred to on cards as "playing" that ability. Cards that were printed with that text have received errata in the Oracle card reference so they now refer to "[[activate|activating]]" that ability.
