Delve
702.66 Keyword Ability
702.66a
Delve is a static ability that functions while the spell with delve is on the stack. “Delve” means “For each generic mana in this spell’s total cost, you may exile a card from your graveyard rather than pay that mana.”
702.66b
The delve ability isn’t an additional or alternative cost and applies only after the total cost of the spell with delve is determined.
702.66c
Multiple instances of delve on the same spell are redundant.
