Frogmite

Affinity is a keyword ability.

Details[]

It is a static ability that reduces the cost of a spell by 1 Generic Mana for each permanent of a specific type that you control.

Example[]

Alan is trying to cast a Frogmite and he currently controls three artifacts, because of affinity the Frogmite will cost just 1 Generic Mana, rather than the 4 Generic Mana that it would normally cost.

Comprehensive Rules[]

702.40. Affinity

  • 702.40a. Affinity is a static ability that functions while the spell is on the stack. "Affinity for [text]" means "This spell costs you 1 Generic Mana less to cast for each [text] you control."
  • 702.40b. The affinity ability reduces only the amount of generic mana a spell's controller has to pay; it doesn't reduce how much colored mana that player has to pay.
  • 702.40c. If a spell has multiple instances of affinity, each of them applies.
