Mana

Mana is the primary resource for playing spells. Mana is typically drawn from lands, but it can also be generated by non-land permanents and other spells.

In textual terms mana symbols are represented as:

• {W} = White
• {U} = Blue
• {B} = Black
• {R} = Red
• {G} = Green
• {N} = colorless ("N" is a Natural number. Example: {1} is 1 colorless mana, {2} is 2 colorless mana and so on.)

Hybrid Mana

Hybrid Mana (also known as Half-Half Mana) is a type of mana first introduced in Ravnica: City of Guilds (set). Each hybrid mana symbol represents a cost which can be paid with one of two colors. The Hybrid can be any combination of two given colors. In textual terms hybrid mana symbols are represented as:

• {W/U} = White or Blue
• {W/B} = White or Black
• {U/B} = Blue or Black
• {U/R} = Blue or Red
• {B/R} = Black or Red
• {B/G} = Black or Green
• {R/G} = Red or Green
• {R/W} = Red or White
• {G/W} = Green or White
• {G/U} = Green or Blue
