Haste
Whenever Shadow the Hedgehog or another creature you control with flash or haste dies, draw a card.
Chaos Control — Each spell you cast has split second if mana from an artifact was spent to cast it. (As long as it's on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.)
Picked for what they do in Shadow the Hedgehog's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Shadow the Hedgehog'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.AristocratsAristocrats decks sacrifice their own creatures on purpose and profit every time one dies, often by draining life from each opponent. A sacrifice outlet, a card that lets you sacrifice whenever you like, decides when that happens.Open the Aristocrats pageDeath TriggerTriggers when a creature dies, whether it is this creature, one of yours or an opponent's. These are the cards that pay you in an Aristocrats deck: something else makes creatures die, and these decide what you get each time.
