The face-down spell has no mana cost and a mana value of 0. When you cast a face-down spell, put it on the stack face down so no other player knows what it is, and pay {3} to cast it. This is an alternative cost.
wotc2 Feb 2024
Any time you have priority, you may turn the face-down creature face up by revealing what its disguise cost is and paying that cost. This is a special action. It doesn't use the stack and can't be responded to. Only a face-down permanent can be turned face up this way; a face-down spell cannot.
wotc2 Feb 2024
Turning a permanent face up or face down doesn't change whether that permanent is tapped or untapped.
wotc2 Feb 2024
If a face-down creature loses its abilities, it can't be turned face up with a disguise ability because it will no longer have a disguise ability (or a disguise cost) once face up.
wotc2 Feb 2024
At any time, you can look at a face-down spell or permanent you control. You can't look at face-down permanents or spells you don't control unless an effect instructs or allows you to do so.
wotc2 Feb 2024
If Crowd-Control Warden enters the battlefield at the same time as one or more creatures, those creatures won't count for the purposes of Crowd-Control Warden's first ability.
