About Back-To-Back Savor the Moments

Asked by C4rnif3X 8 years ago

So I have a question I think I know the answer to, but just want to clarify. So here's an example of my question..

Let's say I have six mana.. I have two Savor the Moments in hand. I play Savor the Moment for three mana, and don't untap the three mana used to pay the cost on my next free turn.

So on that free turn I use the remaining 3 mana to play another Savor the Moment tapping the remaining 3 mana.

Then I go to my second free turn, does the original 3 mana used to pay the first Savor the Moment untap on that second free turn?

No the text for Savor the Moment is rather black and white on what happens, your lands normally only untap during the untap step of your turn, during both of your extra turns your untap step is skipped entirely, so your actions and boardstate, as an example, would look like:
-Have 6 islands in play
-Tap 3 isands and play first Savor the Moment
-Move to next turn, skipping untap step, have 3 untapped islands remaining
-Tap 3 remaining islands to cast second Savor the Moment
-Move to next turn, again skipping untap step, have no untapped lands.
