Are creature abilities instants in MTG?
Creature abilities in MTG can feel a bit like instant magic because you can often use them whenever you could cast an instant, especially if they don't specifically say 'activate only any time you could cast a sorcery'. So yeah, unless the ability says otherwise, treat it like your very own instant spell!

Nope, not all of them! It depends on what the card says. Some abilities are at sorcery speed. Always read the fine print!
Quick tip: If the creature鈥檚 ability doesn鈥檛 have the tap symbol or doesn鈥檛 say it鈥檚 limited to sorcery speed, you can usually activate it whenever you could play an instant. Saved my skin in games more times than I can count!
