Gameplay

Enchantment

Whenever an opponent casts their first spell each turn, that player exiles the top card of their library. If it's a nonland card, you may cast it without paying its mana cost.

Infinite wisdom cannot be contained within a single mind.

If you don't cast the card, perhaps because you choose not to or because it's a land card, it remains exiled.

2016-07-13wotc

If the card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

2016-07-13wotc

If you cast the exiled card, you do so as part of the resolution of Mind's Dilation's ability. You can't wait to cast it later in the turn. Timing permissions based on the card's type are ignored, but other restrictions (such as "Cast [this card] only during combat") are not.
