About Boarding Party

Boarding Party, Creature — human pirate, designed by Sidharth Chaturvedi first released in Nov, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Pauper. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 7.44.

This card would be beneficial in a red aggressive deck that aims to quickly overwhelm the opponent with fast creatures and direct damage. While Boarding Party's Cascade ability can provide additional value by potentially casting a free spell, its high mana cost might make it less efficient compared to other options like Goblin Guide or Monastery Swiftspear, which offer immediate impact for a lower cost. Overall, Boarding Party could see play in certain niche decks but may not be a top choice in competitive settings.

Rules

03/19/21

A spell’s converted mana cost is determined only by its mana cost. Ignore any alternative costs, additional costs, cost increases, or cost reductions. For example, Bloodbraid Elf’s converted mana cost is always 4.

03/19/21

If the card has in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

03/19/21

The converted mana cost of a modal double-faced card in exile is that of its front face. If the last card you exile is a modal double-faced card, you may only cast the back face if the resulting spell would also have a lesser converted mana cost than the spell with cascade.

03/19/21

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.

03/19/21

You exile the cards face up. All players will be able to see them.

11/10/20

Countering the spell with cascade has no effect on the cascade ability.

11/10/20

The cascade ability triggers when you cast the spell, meaning that it resolves before that spell. If you cast the card exiled by the cascade ability, that spell will go on the stack above the spell with cascade.

11/10/20

You don’t have to cast the last card exiled by a cascade ability. If you choose to do so, you’re casting it as a spell. This means that it can be countered, and appropriate abilities trigger (such as if that spell also has cascade).
