Nivmagus Elemental



Exile an instant or sorcery spell you control: Put two +1/+1 counters on Nivmagus Elemental.

When it escaped, the experimenters hesitated. It would cause untold havoc, yet they wished to see it in action.

    Arf it only it was “counter” rather than “exile” I could have played this in my Burning vengeance deck. Anyway works very well with Talrand, Sky Summoner.

  • Tripbolt17

    potential 5/6 on turn two? i still don’t know though about exiling two spells..

    • OnIIcE

      how did you get it to 5/6?

      • OnIIcE

        nvm, didn’t see it was 2 counters! =o

    • Kjnkln

      turn two gutshot gutshot gutshot gutshot….

      • Grfgdzhbdz

        or turn 1

  • Guest

    Goes well with Snapcaster and anything that has Flashback.

  • guyfarting

    Can you exile copies made with replicate?

    • Guy

      Yes

      • guyfarting

        Sweet. Shattering Spree your own artifact repeatedly, then exile all of them. xD

  • Church

    So the question now is when do you control an instant or sorcery? Example: Do you control the instants/sorceries in your graveyard that has flashback? Or is it just when you’re casting them?

    • YouGotFranked

       when you cast an instant or sorcery, it gets into the stack until it resolves. This is when you can use this card’s ability.

      • Church

        I figured as much, but it didn’t hurt to ask.

    • BWH

      It says an instant or sorcery SPELL.  It’s only a spell while it’s on the
      stack.

  • Turnip

    Amazing! Pump it when one of your own spells faces a counter!

  • Steve

    hybrid one mana 1/2, and thats not all

  • Daniel989

    if you cast mana leak, and your opponent pay 3, u can exile the mana leak with
    Nivmagus Elemental?

    • GreyMan820

      nah cause that would mean mana leak resolved

      • Wisdomseyes

        You can however, have your opponent cast mana leak and you exile your own spell on the stack to fizzle mana leak and get some benefit from the spell that would have otherwise become useless to you.

  • Pascal Vesper

    even Without the effect pretty solid 1drop with 1/2

  • Pickles

    does the effect work with storm?

    • Droideka22

      Yes, beautifully

  • BaronVengeous

    With all the “when you cast instant/sorcery” effects around (not necessarily in standard), it won’t really matter that you don’t get the spell, you’re still getting loads of benefits out of it anyway. 

    Regardless of what anyone else says, I’ll be playing this in Modern with Kiln Fiend, the new Guttersnipe, and all the Phyrexian Mana stuff.

  • Tezzim-Vin

    It really should’ve been a Weird :)

  • indes

    This card is going to get huge with Epic Experiment. 

  • Darthwaluigi

    Has anyone else thought to pair this with an Ink-Treader Nephilim?
