Jeskai Baller rulings

2024-11-08
Jeskai Baller’s first ability will resolve before Jeskai Baller does. If Jeskai Baller is countered or otherwise leaves the stack in response to that triggered ability, the triggered ability will still resolve as normal.
2024-11-08
If you cast Jeskai Baller from your hand and the spell resolves, you must exile the spell due to its rebound ability. You cannot choose to have it enter the battlefield as a creature.
2024-11-08
If you cast Jeskai Baller from any zone other than your hand (including from exile using its rebound ability) and the spell resolves, Jeskai Baller enters the battlefield as a creature.
2024-11-08
Casting the card again due to rebound’s delayed triggered ability is optional. If you choose not to cast the card, or if you can’t because an effect prohibits it, the card will stay exiled. You won’t get another chance to cast it on a future turn.
2024-11-08
If a spell with rebound that you cast from your hand doesn’t resolve for any reason, including being countered, the spell will be put into its owner’s graveyard and you won’t get to cast it again on your next turn.

Playtest cards aren’t legal for play in any tournament format other than Mystery Booster Limited formats. On the other hand, we expect they will spice up a wide variety of non-tournament games (as long as everyone’s on the same page about using them!).
2024-11-08
Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as and . These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.
2024-11-08
For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.

Jeskai Baller keyword rules

Rebound Rule 702.88

Rebound appears on some instants and sorceries. It represents a static ability that functions while the spell is on the stack and may create a delayed triggered ability. “Rebound” means “If this spell was cast from your hand, instead of putting it into your graveyard as it resolves, exile it and, at the beginning of your next upkeep, you may cast this card from exile without paying its mana cost.”

Casting a spell as an effect of its rebound ability follows the rules for paying alternative costs in rules and –h.

Multiple instances of rebound on the same spell are redundant.
