Manifesting a god card
Asked by abenz419 9 years ago
I just want to be clear on this but I think I know how it works. If I were to manifest Erebos, God of the Dead with Mastery of the Unseen can I pay his CMC to flip him up even if devotion is not met?
I'm assuming I could since being face down means his static ability wouldn't be in effect and he's a legendary enchantment creature in all zones except the battlefield when devotion is not met. I'm just making sure there isn't something that I'm missing.

Right. The rules for manifest say you're allowed to flip it up if the front face is an actual creature card. That's what you have in your example.
Compare this to a manifested Rusted Relic when you currently qualify for Metalcraft bonuses. You can't flip this one up with the manifest ability.
