Oracle Text

Exile the top two cards of your library. Until the end of your next turn, you may play those cards.

(You may cast this card from your graveyard by discarding a land card in addition to paying its other costs.)

"Everyone's gotta die somehow. I'll be damned if I meet my end cowering in some cellar."

If the active player casts a spell that has retrace, that player may cast that card again after it resolves, before another player can remove the card from the graveyard. The active player has priority after the spell resolves, so they can immediately cast a new spell. Since casting a card with retrace from the graveyard moves that card onto the stack, no one else would have the chance to affect it while it’s still in the graveyard.

You pay all costs and follow all normal timing rules for cards played from exile this way. For example, if an exiled card is a land card, you may play it only during your main phase while the stack is empty.

Casting a card by using its retrace ability works just like casting any other spell, with two exceptions: You’re casting it from your graveyard rather than your hand, and you must discard a land card in addition to any other costs.
