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 pageProtectionA creature with protection from something, like a color, is safe from anything with that quality. It cannot be damaged, enchanted or equipped, blocked, or targeted by it, and players remember the four with the word DEBT. It does not stop effects that neither target nor damage, like a board wipe that destroys every creature.

Seedborn MuseOpen the Untapper pageTap / Untap LoopsCards that untap your permanents, so a creature or land can be used twice in one turn. Some untap effects create endless loops that win the game.Open the Tap / Untap Loops page
