Awaken is a keyword ability that provides an alternative cost. If a spell is cast for its awaken cost, in addition to its other effects, it animates a land you control as a 0/0 Elemental creature with N +1/+1 counters on it. [1] [2]
Description
Awaken was introduced in Duel Decks: Zendikar vs. Eldrazi, as a preview for Battle for Zendikar.
Examples
Rulings
- You can target a land that's already a creature.[1]
- If you cast a spell for its awaken cost, you must choose a legal target for every instance of the word "target," including the one included in the awaken ability.[1]
- If a spell with awaken normally doesn't require a target, and you choose to cast it for its awaken cost, you will add a target to the spell by doing so. If that target land becomes illegal before the spell tries to resolve, the spell will be countered.[1]
