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 glossaryRPlayers write colors as letters: R for red.Extra CombatsExtra Combat decks get to attack more than once in a single turn, so their creatures can hit twice or more. They pair with cards that untap creatures, because a creature that attacked is usually tapped and cannot attack again until it untaps.Open the Extra Combats pageExtra CombatGives you an extra combat, a second chance to attack in the same turn. Most, like Aggravated Assault and Aurelia, the Warleader, also untap your creatures so they can attack again, and cards that make a creature hard to block, like Whispersilk Cloak, make each attack count.Open the Extra Combat pageExtra PhaseAdds an extra phase to your turn: usually another combat, though sometimes an additional main phase to cast more spells.
