Veil of Summer

Veil of Summer is a Instant card from the Magic: The Gathering trading card game.

Its ability reads: "Draw a card if an opponent has cast a blue or black spell this turn. Spells you control can't be countered this turn. You and permanents you control gain hexproof from blue and from black until end of turn. (You and they can't be the targets of blue or black spells or abilities your opponents control.)"

Veil of Summer has a mana cost of {G}, which equals 1.0 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.

Veil of Summer's mana cost of {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.

Veil of Summer has a mana value of 1.0. 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.

You and permanents you control gain hexproof from blue and from black until end of turn. (You and they can't be the targets of blue or black spells or abilities your opponents control.)"
