The printed cast cost is eight but Emerge lets you cheat it out by sacrificing a creature and paying a reduced emerge cost of {5}{B}{B}. Play it when you can afford the sacrificial tempo and you get a 5\/5 Eldrazi Insect that immediately pressures an opponent's resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn resolution the Distended Mindbender forces a targeted opponent to reveal their hand and lets you select a low cost threat and a higher cost answer for discard. That paired disruption is effective in midrange and sacrifice shells where handing an opponent a split loss can decide tempo and clearance lines. Use it as a finisher after your board development or as a deterrent when you need to clear a specific reply from their hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCard Details:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMana Cost\u003c\/b\u003e – {8}\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCard Type\u003c\/b\u003e – Creature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSubtypes\u003c\/b\u003e – Eldrazi Insect\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCard Text \/ Rules Text (Printed)\u003c\/b\u003e – Emerge {5}{B}{B} (You may cast this spell by sacrificing a creature and paying the emerge cost reduced by that creature's mana value.)
