## Official Rulings
- *(2021-09-24)* "Disturb [cost]" means "You may cast this card transformed from your graveyard by paying [cost] rather than its mana cost."
- *(2021-09-24)* To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a disturb cost) you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of a spell cast using disturb is determined by the mana cost on the front face of the card, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was. (This is a special rule that applies only to transforming double faced-cards, including ones with disturb.)
- *(2021-09-24)* A token dying will never cause the triggered ability to trigger because a token is not a card.
- *(2021-09-24)* A spell cast this way enters the battlefield with its back face up.
- *(2021-09-24)* When you cast a spell using a card's disturb ability, the card is put onto the stack with its back face up. The resulting spell has all the characteristics of that face.
- *(2021-09-24)* If you copy a permanent spell cast this way (perhaps with a card like Double Major), the copy becomes a token that's a copy of the card's back face, even though it isn't itself a double-faced card.
