Frequently Asked Questions
Ruin Raider is a Creature — Orc Pirate card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "Raid — At the beginning of your end step, if you attacked this turn, reveal the top card of your library and put that card into your hand. You lose life equal to the card's 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.
Ruin Raider's mana cost of {2}{B} means you need to pay that much mana from your lands or other sources.

Converted mana cost (now officially called "mana value") is the total amount of mana in a card's mana cost, regardless of color.
Ruin Raider has a mana value of 3.0. This is important for effects that care about a spell's total cost, like cascade or cards that say "mana value 3 or less."
