Frequently Asked Questions
Biblioplex Kraken is a Creature — Kraken card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "When this creature enters, scry 3. (Look at the top three cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom and the rest on top in any order.) Whenever this creature attacks, you may return another creature you control to its owner's hand. If you do, this creature can't be blocked this turn."
Biblioplex Kraken 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.
Biblioplex Kraken'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.
Biblioplex Kraken 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.
