# Change of Plans
- **Mana Cost:** `{X}{1}{U}` (CMC: 2)
- **Type:** Instant
- **Keywords:** Connive

## Oracle Text
Each of X target creatures you control connive. You may have any number of them phase out. (To have a creature connive, draw a card, then discard a card. If you discarded a nonland card, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature. Treat phased-out permanents and anything attached to them as though they don't exist until their controller's next turn.)
