Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Human Shaman

Magecraft — Whenever you cast or copy an instant or sorcery spell, scry 1. If that spell's mana value is 5 or greater, create a 4/4 blue and red Elemental creature token. If that spell's mana value is 10 or greater, Zaffai deals 10 damage to an opponent chosen at random.

"That spell's mana value" refers to the spell that caused the ability to trigger, not the card you look at when you scry.

2021-04-16wotc

If an effect creates a copy of an instant or sorcery spell, this will also cause the magecraft ability to trigger.

For example, if you control Archmage Emeritus and cast an instant or sorcery spell, Archmage Emeritus's magecraft ability will trigger and you will draw a card.
