Gameplay

Sorcery

Demonstrate (When you cast this spell, you may copy it. If you do, choose an opponent to also copy it.) Mill five cards, then return a creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield.

"We could be on the verge of a four-fold cross rip. A PKE surge of incredible, even dangerous proportions." —Dr. Raymond Stantz

You choose whether to make a copy as the demonstrate ability resolves. This happens before the original spell resolves. Your copy goes on the stack above the original spell.

You may choose any creature card in your graveyard, not just one that you milled this way.

2021-04-16wotc

This means that if you cast a spell with demonstrate and both you and an opponent copy it, the opponent’s copy will resolve first, then your copy will resolve, and finally the original spell will resolve.
