# Talon Gates
- **Mana Cost:** `N/A` (CMC: 0)
- **Type:** Plane — Dominaria

## Oracle Text
Any time you could cast a sorcery, you may exile a nonland card from your hand with X time counters on it, where X is its mana value. If the exiled card doesn't have suspend, it gains suspend. (At the beginning of its owner's upkeep, they remove a time counter. When the last is removed, the player may cast it without paying its mana cost. If it's a creature, it has haste.)
Whenever chaos ensues, remove two time counters from each suspended card you own.
