Devoid is a static ability which states that a card is colorless, regardless of the colors in that card's casting cost.

Description

Devoid was introduced in Duel Decks: Zendikar vs. Eldrazi‎, as a preview for Battle for Zendikar‎. [1] Because it is a characteristic-defining ability, cards with devoid are colorless at all times, including when not on the battlefield or outside of the game. However, devoid does not change a card's color identity, which is defined as the combination of all colors indicated on the card.

Examples

Trivia

  • While functionally colorless, cards with devoid are numbered according to the color of their casting costs.
