Frequently Asked Questions
The World Spell is a Enchantment — Saga card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.
Its ability reads: "Read ahead (Choose a chapter and start with that many lore counters. Add one after your draw step. Skipped chapters don't trigger. Sacrifice after III.) I, II — Look at the top seven cards of your library. You may reveal a non-Saga permanent card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. III — Put up to two non-Saga permanent cards from your hand onto the battlefield."
The World Spell has a mana cost of {5}{G}{G}, which equals 7.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).
It requires G mana to cast.
Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
The World Spell's mana cost of {5}{G}{G} 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 World Spell has a mana value of 7.0. 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.
The World Spell's current oracle text is: "Read ahead (Choose a chapter and start with that many lore counters. Add one after your draw step. Skipped chapters don't trigger. Sacrifice after III.) I, II — Look at the top seven cards of your library. You may reveal a non-Saga permanent card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
