(THIS MECHANIC HAS BEEN PHASED OUT) Dissect is a mechanic that uses the graveyard as a resource. Creatures with Dissect all have a triggered ability that triggers when the creature dissects. Many cards ask you to dissect a creature, (creature card) but others dissect other card types.

In card text or details pages, write the mechanic's code name (playtest name) between square brackets, like "[Crittercast]", "[Bushido 1]" or "[Delay 4 {2}{R}{R}]". It will be expanded to the mechanic's name plus reminder text, such as "Suspend 4 – {2} {r} {r} . (Rather than cast this spell from your hand,...)"
To expand a mechanic's name but not its reminder text, include parentheses at the end of the square brackets: "[Crittercast()]", "[Delay 9 {R}()]".
