Frequently Asked Questions
Crackdown Construct is a Artifact Creature — Construct card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "Whenever you activate an ability of an artifact or creature that isn't a mana ability, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn."
Crackdown Construct has a mana cost of {4}, which equals 4.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It is a colorless card and can be cast with any color of mana.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
Crackdown Construct's mana cost of {4} 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.
Crackdown Construct has a mana value of 4.0. This is important for effects that care about a spell's total cost, like cascade or cards that say "mana value 3 or less."
