Hostile Negotiations

Hostile Negotiations is a Instant card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Exile the top three cards of your library in a face-down pile, then exile the top three cards of your library in another face-down pile. Look at the cards in each pile, then turn a pile of your choice face up. An opponent chooses one of those piles. Put that pile into your hand and the other into your graveyard. You lose 3 life."

Hostile Negotiations has a mana cost of {3}{B}, which equals 4.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).

It requires B mana to cast.

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

Hostile Negotiations's mana cost of {3}{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.

Hostile Negotiations 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."

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.

Hostile Negotiations's current oracle text is: "Exile the top three cards of your library in a face-down pile, then exile the top three cards of your library in another face-down pile. Look at the cards in each pile, then turn a pile of your choice face up. An opponent chooses one of those piles. Put that pile into your hand and the other into your graveyard. You lose 3 life."
