Prowess is a keyword ability that was introduced as the clan-specific mechanic for the Jeskai Way in Khans of Tarkir [2] and Fate Reforged. [3]

Description

Prowess was designed by Jonathon Loucks during the second Great Designer Search. [4]

Creatures with Prowess trigger and get +1/+1 until end of turn when a non-creature spell is cast by their controller.

R&D's need for blue to get a combat-relevant keyword that wasn't about evasion caused Prowess to become evergreen in Magic Origins. It is secondary in red and tertiary in white. [5] [6]

Rules

Template:Keyword CR

Rulings

  • Any spell you cast that doesn't have the type creature will cause prowess to trigger. If a spell has multiple types, and one of those types is creature (such as an artifact creature), casting it won't cause prowess to trigger. Playing a land also won't cause prowess to trigger.
  • Prowess triggers only once for any spell, even if that spell has multiple types.
  • Prowess goes on the stack on top of the spell that caused it to trigger. It will resolve before that spell.
  • Once it triggers, prowess isn't connected to the spell that caused it to trigger. If that spell is countered, prowess will still resolve.
