Unless countered, will the spell with the suspend mechanic continue to reoccur ?

Specifically cards like Festering March

Thanks.

No.  When the last time counter comes off, you cast it, and when it resolves it goes to the graveyard.

Are you sure ?  Festering March says to remove the card from the game and add 3 time counters to it.

Suspend means you remove it from your hand, exile it, and put the counters on it.  After it comes out of suspend, you cast it.  The spell doesn't suspend itself when it resolves.

EDIT: Didn't RTFC.  I thought you were referring to the reminder text for suspend, not the spell.  See correct answer below.

Festering March will resuspend itself unless countered

rudolf's answer is true for Suspend in general, but not for this cycle

Thanks for the correction.  I thought the question was about whether the "Suspend mechanic" let it recur, and didn't read the card in the question.

It probably would've helped if my question had been phrased more clearly.

Thanks again guys.
