A colorless spell whose mana cost is {2} or {1} will cost {0} to cast.
wotc3 May 2019
If you've activated Ugin's ability multiple times, you must keep track of which exiled card belongs to each Spirit token.
wotc3 May 2019
To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Ugin). The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
wotc3 May 2019
A land normally has no color, even if it can produce one or more colors of mana.
wotc3 May 2019
If the Spirit leaves the battlefield for any reason, you'll put the exiled card into your hand, even if Ugin left the battlefield before that happened.
wotc3 May 2019
If an effect such as that of Doubling Season causes Ugin to create two Spirit tokens, you still only exile one card from your library. You'll put that card into your hand the first time that either of the tokens leaves the battlefield.
Ranked by shared capabilities, colour identity, mana value and type — never by strategic judgement.
