Picked for what they do in Jiang Yanggu's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Jiang Yanggu's color identity.Mana ValueThe total amount of mana a card costs, all added up. A card costing two generic and one green has a mana value of three.

Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryGPlayers write colors as letters: G for green.ComboCombo decks hunt for a few specific cards that win the game on the spot once they are all together. Many repeat an action over and over without end, which players call an infinite combo; the rest of the deck searches for the pieces and protects them.Open the Combo pageUntapperUntaps permanents.
