Frequently Asked Questions
Lost Days is a Instant — Lesson card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "The owner of target creature or enchantment puts it into their library second from the top or on the bottom. You create a Clue token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")"
Lost Days has a mana cost of {4}{U}, which equals 5.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It requires U mana to cast.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
Lost Days's mana cost of {4}{U} 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.
Lost Days has a mana value of 5.0. 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.
Lost Days's current oracle text is: "The owner of target creature or enchantment puts it into their library second from the top or on the bottom. You create a Clue token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")"
