Frequently Asked Questions
Common Crook is a Creature — Human Rogue Villain card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "When this creature dies, create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "{T}, Sacrifice this token: Add one mana of any color.")"
Common Crook has a mana cost of {1}{B}, which equals 2.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It requires B mana to cast.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
Common Crook's mana cost of {1}{B} means you need to pay that much mana from your lands or other sources.
Colored symbols (W=White, U=Blue, B=Black, R=Red, G=Green) must be paid with that specific color, while numbers can be paid with any color.
Converted mana cost (now officially called "mana value") is the total amount of mana in a card's mana cost, regardless of color.
Common Crook has a mana value of 2.0. This is important for effects that care about a spell's total cost, like cascade or cards that say "mana value 3 or less."
Oracle text is the official, current rules text for a Magic card as maintained by Wizards of the Coast. It supersedes any printed text on older cards.
Common Crook's current oracle text is: "When this creature dies, create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "{T}, Sacrifice this token: Add one mana of any color.")"
