Seeker of Insight effect with artifacts

Asked by TheWrongBunny 8 years ago

I'm sure this is simple but would you be able to activate Seeker of Insights ability after casting an artifact. now i know that artifacts are technically spells on the stack but when they are a card in hand or once they have been cast they stop being a spell.

Yes, casting an artifact (i.e. artifact spell) counts as a noncreature spell, unless the artifact in question is an artifact creature.

To be clear: Lands are just "played" when you play them, but everything else - Artifacts, Creatures, Enchantments, Instants, Planeswalkers, Sorceries, whatever - is "cast" as a spell when you play it (unless, of course, an effect just says it's putting something onto the battlefield or making a copy of a spell without specifically saying "cast"). Anything you cast this turn that wasn't a creature will qualify for Seeker of Insight's ability.
