You can't tap an untapped Gate you control for mana and tap it to activate Gateway Shade's ability at the same time. You must choose one or the other.

Price History

To study a single card is to glimpse the heart of a spell - a frozen moment of ambition, artistry, and arcane intent. Within each glyph lies a spark: a story untold, a duel turned, a destiny altered. Treat it not as mere parchment, dear seeker, but as a shard of the Multiverse itself.
