Back from the Brink

Enchantment


Exile a creature card from your graveyard and pay its mana cost: Create a token that's a copy of that card. Activate this ability only any time you could cast a sorcery.

On Innistrad, death is just a career change.

    Although you're paying the card's mana cost, you aren't casting that card. Abilities that reduce the cost to cast a creature spell won't apply, and additional costs to cast that creature can't be paid. If the card has an ability that allows another cost to be paid "rather than its mana cost," that alternative cost can be paid. Other alternative costs that affect what it costs to cast a creature spell, such as evoke, can't.
