Apex Devastator

Apex Devastator is a Creature — Chimera Hydra card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Cascade, cascade, cascade, cascade (When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order. Multiple instances of cascade each trigger separately.)"

Apex Devastator has a mana cost of {8}{G}{G}, which equals 10.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).

It requires G mana to cast.

Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.

Apex Devastator's mana cost of {8}{G}{G} 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.

Apex Devastator has a mana value of 10.0. 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.

Apex Devastator's current oracle text is: "Cascade, cascade, cascade, cascade (When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order. Multiple instances of cascade each trigger separately.)"
