Tezzeret, Cruel Captain

Tezzeret, Cruel Captain is a Legendary Planeswalker — Tezzeret card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Whenever an artifact you control enters, put a loyalty counter on Tezzeret. [0]: Untap target artifact or creature. If it's an artifact creature, put a +1/+1 counter on it. [−3]: Search your library for an artifact card with mana value 1 or less, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle. [−7]: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of combat on your turn, put three +1/+1 counters on target artifact you control. If it's not a creature, it becomes a 0/0 Robot artifact creature.""

Tezzeret, Cruel Captain 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.

Tezzeret, Cruel Captain'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.

Tezzeret, Cruel Captain 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."
