Consuming Aberration

Consuming Aberration is a Creature — Horror card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Consuming Aberration's power and toughness are each equal to the number of cards in your opponents' graveyards. Whenever you cast a spell, each opponent reveals cards from the top of their library until they reveal a land card, then puts those cards into their graveyard."

Consuming Aberration has a mana cost of {3}{U}{B}, which equals 5.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).

It requires B, U mana to cast.

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

Consuming Aberration's mana cost of {3}{U}{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.

Consuming Aberration 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."
