Craft is an ability word introduced in The Lost Caverns of Ixalan.

Description

Craft is a new way to transform artifacts. By paying a mana cost and exiling permanents you control from the battlefield and / or from your graveyard with specified qualities, artifacts can transform into more powerful permanents.

As with previous transforming double-faced cards, you always cast the front face of these cards (that's the face with the craft ability), and they always enter with that face up unless something specifically says they enter transformed, such as the craft ability.

To activate a craft ability, you need to do three things: exile the permanent with craft, exile the specified materials, and pay some mana. The materials are other permanents you control and/or cards from your graveyard and are described in the craft ability itself — for example, "craft with artifact" means exile an artifact you control other than the permanent with craft or exile an artifact card from your graveyard. As the craft ability resolves, the card with craft will return to the battlefield transformed under its owner's control.

If a craft ability requires multiple materials, you can exile some from among permanents you control and the rest from among cards in your graveyard.
