Strata Scythe

Strata Scythe is a Artifact — Equipment card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Imprint — When this Equipment enters, search your library for a land card, exile it, then shuffle. Equipped creature gets +1/+1 for each land on the battlefield with the same name as the exiled card. Equip {3}"

Strata Scythe has a mana cost of {3}, which equals 3.0 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.

Strata Scythe's mana cost of {3} 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.

Strata Scythe 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."

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.

Strata Scythe's current oracle text is: "Imprint — When this Equipment enters, search your library for a land card, exile it, then shuffle. Equipped creature gets +1/+1 for each land on the battlefield with the same name as the exiled card. Equip {3}"
