Hatchery Spider

Hatchery Spider is a Creature — Spider card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Reach Undergrowth — When you cast this spell, reveal the top X cards of your library, where X is the number of creature cards in your graveyard. You may put a green permanent card with mana value X or less from among them onto the battlefield. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order."

Hatchery Spider has a mana cost of {5}{G}{G}, which equals 7.0 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.

Hatchery Spider's mana cost of {5}{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.

Hatchery Spider has a mana value of 7.0. 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.
