Frequently Asked Questions
The Fourth Doctor is a Legendary Creature — Time Lord Doctor card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "You may look at the top card of your library any time. Would You Like A...? — Once each turn, you may play a historic land or cast a historic spell from the top of your library. When you do, create a Food token. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)"
The Fourth Doctor has a mana cost of {2}{G}{U}, which equals 4.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It requires G, U mana to cast.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
The Fourth Doctor's mana cost of {2}{G}{U} 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.
The Fourth Doctor 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."
