Advice from the Fae

Advice from the Fae is a Sorcery card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "({2/U} can be paid with any two mana or with {U}. This card's mana value is 6.) Look at the top five cards of your library. If you control more creatures than each other player, put two of those cards into your hand. Otherwise, put one of them into your hand. Then put the rest on the bottom of your library in any order."

Advice from the Fae has a mana cost of {2/U}{2/U}{2/U}, which equals 6.0 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.

Advice from the Fae's mana cost of {2/U}{2/U}{2/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.

Advice from the Fae has a mana value of 6.0. 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.

Advice from the Fae's current oracle text is: "({2/U} can be paid with any two mana or with {U}. This card's mana value is 6.) Look at the top five cards of your library. If you control more creatures than each other player, put two of those cards into your hand. Otherwise, put one of them into your hand. Then put the rest on the bottom of your library in any order."
