Picked for what they do in Lagomos's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Lagomos'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. Wizards renamed this from "converted mana cost" in 2021, so older cards and articles may still use the old name.Open the full glossary
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 glossaryBRPlayers write colors as letters: B for black, R for red.ToolboxToolbox decks carry one perfect answer for each kind of problem, plus plenty of cards that search the deck for whichever one they need. A card that searches your deck for another card is called a tutor.Open the Toolbox pageRepeatable TutorA search for a card that you can repeat, because it sits on a permanent rather than being a one-time spell. It works as an ability or a trigger, and it is the heart of a Toolbox deck: one card that can find the right answer every turn. Sisay, Weatherlight Captain, Survival of the Fittest, Birthing PodOpen the Repeatable Tutor pageTutorSearches your deck for a specific card. Because a Commander deck may only contain one copy of each card, a tutor is how you reliably find the exact one you need. See the Tutor tier tags for how broad each search is. Demonic TutorOpen the Tutor pageTutor - UnrestrictedFinds any card in your library, with no limit on what kind: the most reliable way to get exactly the card you need.

A token is a creature (or other object) that a card creates, not a card from your deck.Open the Tokens pageSelf-SacrificeSacrifices itself as part of its own ability, trading the permanent away for what it does. Evolving Wilds, Mind StoneOpen the Self-Sacrifice pageToken EngineMakes tokens again and again rather than once. A token is a creature or other permanent created by a card, with no card of its own. Something that makes one token gives you a body; something that makes them every turn gives you a board you can keep rebuilding after it is cleared.

Different cards make very different ones: creatures Grave Titan, Treasures Smothering Tithe, Clues Tireless Tracker or Food Gilded Goose.
