Appeal // Authority

If another effect allows you to cast a split card with aftermath from any zone other than a graveyard, you can’t cast the half with aftermath.

Split cards with aftermath have a new frame treatment—the half you can cast from your hand is oriented the same as other cards you’d cast from your hand, while the half you can cast from your graveyard is a traditional split card half. This frame treatment is for your convenience and has no rules significance.

All split cards have two card faces on a single card, and you put a split card onto the stack with only the half you’re casting. The characteristics of the half of the card you didn’t cast are ignored while the spell is on the stack. For example, if an effect prevents you from casting green spells, you can cast Destined of Destined // Lead, but not Lead.

Each split card has two names. If an effect instructs you to choose a card name, you may choose one, but not both.
