About Aurora Phoenix
Aurora Phoenix, Creature — phoenix, designed by Caio Monteiro first released in Oct, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.89.
A deck that focuses on casting spells with cascade would benefit from including Aurora Phoenix, as it provides a recurring threat and can be cast for free with cascade triggers. However, in competitive Magic: The Gathering environments, there may be better options for similar effects, such as Shardless Agent or Bloodbraid Elf, which have more immediate impact on the board and are more efficient in terms of mana cost. Whether Aurora Phoenix should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck in question.
Rules
03/19/21
Cascade triggers when you cast the spell, meaning that it resolves before that spell. If you end up casting the exiled card, it will go on the stack above the spell with cascade.
03/19/21
If a spell with cascade is countered, the cascade ability will still resolve normally.
03/19/21
If the last card exiled is a card with an Adventure, you may only cast the spell as an Adventure if that spell has a lesser mana cost than the spell with cascade.
03/19/21
If you cast a card “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the card.
03/19/21
The converted mana cost of a split card is determined by the combined mana cost of its two halves. If cascade allows you to cast a split card, you may cast either half but not both halves.
11/10/20
Aurora Phoenix’s last ability triggers only if it’s in your graveyard immediately after you finish casting the spell with cascade.
11/10/20
If you cast a spell “without paying its mana cost,” you can’t choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the spell.
11/10/20
The cascade ability of the spell you cast and Aurora Phoenix’s return ability can be put on the stack in either order. If you return Aurora Phoenix to your hand first, you do so before exiling any cards for the cascade ability. If the cascade ability resolves first, the spell you cast because of that cascade ability will resolve before you return Aurora Phoenix to your hand. Either way, this all happens before the original spell with cascade resolves.
11/10/20
The converted mana cost of a spell with cascade is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.
11/10/20
When the cascade ability resolves, you must exile cards. The only optional part of the ability is whether or not you cast the last card exiled.
11/10/20
You exile the cards face up. All players will be able to see them.
