  • A player who can't cast a spell can't suspend a card.2021-03-19
  • Silence won't affect spells that your opponents cast before you cast Silence, including any spells that are still on the stack. Silence also won't stop your opponents from casting spells after you cast Silence but before Silence resolves.2021-03-19
