About Veiling Oddity
Veiling Oddity, Creature — illusion, designed by Dave DeVries first released in Feb, 2007 in the set Planar Chaos and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.02.
This card would be beneficial in a control or tempo deck that aims to stall the game until it can cast powerful spells or creatures. While Veiling Oddity's ability to make creatures unblockable can be useful for closing out games, there are more efficient options available in the Magic: the Gathering card pool, such as Delver of Secrets or Snapcaster Mage, which provide immediate value without the need to wait for suspended cards to become active. Overall, Veiling Oddity may not see much play in competitive decks due to its slower nature and the availability of better options.
Rules
03/19/21
A creature cast using suspend will enter the battlefield with haste. It will have haste until another player gains control of it. (In some rare cases, another player may gain control of the creature spell itself. If this happens, the creature won’t enter the battlefield with haste.)
03/19/21
Because it doesn’t modify the characteristics of any objects, Veiling Oddity’s last ability applies to creatures that weren’t on the battlefield as the ability resolved.
03/19/21
If an effect refers to a “suspended card,” that means a card that (1) has suspend, (2) is in exile, and (3) has one or more time counters on it.
03/19/21
If you can’t cast the card, perhaps because there are no legal targets available, it remains exiled with no time counters on it, and it’s no longer suspended.
03/19/21
When the last time counter is removed, the second triggered ability of suspend triggers. It doesn’t matter why the last time counter was removed or what effect removed it.
03/19/21
You are never forced to activate mana abilities to pay costs, so if there is a mandatory additional mana cost (such as from Thalia, Guardian of Thraben), you can decline to activate mana abilities to pay for it and hence fail to cast the suspended card, leaving it in exile.
03/19/21
You can exile a card in your hand using suspend any time you could cast that card. Consider its card type, any effects that modify when you could cast it (such as flash) and any other effects that stop you from casting it (such as from Meddling Mage’s ability) to determine if and when you can do this. Whether you could actually complete all steps in casting the card is irrelevant. For example, you can exile a card with suspend that has no mana cost or that requires a target even if no legal targets are available at that time.
06/07/13
A creature cast using suspend will enter the battlefield with haste. It will have haste until another player gains control of it (or, in some rare cases, gains control of the creature spell itself).
06/07/13
Exiling a card with suspend isn’t casting that card. This action doesn’t use the stack and can’t be responded to.
06/07/13
If the first triggered ability of suspend (the one that removes time counters) is countered, no time counter is removed. The ability will trigger again during the card’s owner’s next upkeep.
06/07/13
If the second triggered ability of suspend (the one that lets you cast the card) is countered, the card can’t be cast. It remains exiled with no time counters on it, and it’s no longer suspended.
02/01/07
If Veiling Oddity is suspended and the last time counter is removed during another player’s turn, that player’s creatures can’t be blocked that turn, too.
02/01/07
If Veiling Oddity is suspended, then when the last time counter is removed from it, both its triggered ability and the “cast this card” part of the suspend ability will trigger. They can be put on the stack in either order.
