• You get an emblem with "At the beginning of your upkeep, pay {U}{B}{R}. If you don't, you lose the game."

If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

There’s no way to leave Pools of Becoming other than by rolling a planar die or finding an effect that instructs you to planeswalk.

11/12/2019·wotc

Pools of Becoming is a plane card that reads “At the beginning of your end step, put the cards in your hand on the bottom of your library in any order, then draw that many cards” and “Whenever you roll CHAOS, reveal the top three cards of your planar deck. Each of the revealed cards' CHAOS abilities triggers. Then put the revealed cards on the bottom of your planar deck in any order.” The second ability can’t trigger unless you roll a planar die.
