Can abilities be used anytime in Magic The Gathering?
Absolutely not! Gotta wait for the right moment. I learned this the hard way in a tournament. Tried to use an ability during my opponent's turn, but it was a no-go because it wasn't an instant-speed ability. Reading the card explains the card, folks.

Nope, not all abilities can be used anytime in MTG. There's some timing involved. Activated abilities (the ones with a colon in their text) can be used almost anytime you have priority, like during your turn or in response to other spells and abilities. However, other abilities, like sorcery-speed abilities, can only be used during your main phase when the stack is empty. So, it's a mix! Always check the card's rules text.
Short answer: no. Some abilities are instant-speed, and others are more like sorceries. Read the card!
