Object of the Game

e Magic ™ game is a strategy game played between two players, each of whom has his or her own customized

deck of Magic cards. Over the course of the game, each player will take turns playing cards such as lands

(which enable you to play your other cards), creatures, sorceries, and other spells. Each player starts at 20 life.

When you reduce your opponent to 0 life by attacking with creatures and playing spells, you win!

You’re here because you want to learn the Magic: The Gathering ® game, the world’s premier trading card game. It was

the ﬁrst game of its kind, and it’s still the best and the biggest.

In the Magic game, you play the role of a planeswalker—a powerful wizard who ﬁghts other planeswalkers for glory,

knowledge, and conquest. Your deck of cards represents all the weapons in your arsenal. It contains the spells you know

and the creatures you can summon to ﬁght for you.

Trading card games like the Magic: The Gathering TCG combine collectable cards with a strategy game. You don’t

know what cards you’ll get in a Magic booster pack or tournament pack. You just start a collection and trade with other

players to get the cards you want.

The best part about a trading card game is that it’s always changing. You design and build your own unique decks, and

each Magic game you play is different. New Magic expansions are released a few times a year, and each new expansion

brings new ways to stupefy and defeat your opponents. Check out MagicTheGathering.com for daily articles, insider

information, and news about upcoming sets!

This section begins with a brief description of the ﬁve Magic colors that give the game its basic structure. Then it describes the

parts of a Magic card and lists the different kinds of cards in the game. It also lists the game’s “zones,” which are the different

areas of the game where cards can be.

FIVE COLORS OF MANA

The Magic game has ﬁve colors of spells and ﬁve types of basic lands. For example, red spells have 6 ( in their costs, and

tapping (turning) a Mountain gives you 6 ( that you can spend to play spells. Each color specializes in certain kinds of effects.

It’s up to you whether to master one color or all ﬁve.

PARTS OF A CARD

Card Name

Mana Cost

Mana is the main resource in the

game. It’s produced by lands, and you

spend it to play spells . The symbols

in a card’s upper right corner tell you

the cost to play that spell. If the mana

cost reads 6 6 6 ( , you pay two mana of

any kind plus one red mana (from a

Mountain) to play it.

Prodigal Pyromancer

Type Line

This tells you the card’s card type :

artifact, creature, enchantment,

instant, land, or sorcery. If the card

has a subtype or supertype , that’s also

listed here. For example, Prodigal

Pyromancer is a creature, and its

subtypes are the creature types Human

and Wizard.

Creature — Human Wizard

Expansion Symbol

This symbol tells you which Magic

set the card is from. For example,

the Tenth Edition expansion

symbol is . The color of the

symbol tells you the card’s rarity :

black for common cards, silver for

uncommons, and gold for rares.

: Prodigal Pyromancer deals 1 damage

to target creature or player.

“What am I looking at? Ashes, dead man.”

Text Box

This is where a card’s abilities appear.

You may also ﬁnd ﬂavor text printed

in italics ( like this ) that tells you

something about the Magic world.

Flavor text has no effect on game play.

Some abilities have italic reminder text

to help explain what they do.

Collector Number

The collector number makes it easier

to organize your cards. For example,

“221/383” means that the card is the

221st of 383 cards in its set.

Power and Toughness

Each creature card has a special box

with its power and toughness. A

creature’s power (the ﬁrst number) is

how much damage it deals in combat.

Its toughness (the second number) is

how much damage must be dealt to it

in a single turn to destroy it.

CARD TYPES

Every Magic card has one or more types. A card’s type tells you when you can play the card and what happens to the card after

you do.

Lava Axe

o 4 o R

Sorcery

A sorcery represents a magical incantation. You can play a sorcery only during

a main phase of one of your own turns. You can’t play it when another spell is

on the stack . (You’ll learn about phases and the stack in a bit.) A sorcery has its

eﬀect —in other words, you follow the instructions on the card—then you put

it into your graveyard , which is the game term for your discard pile.

Sorcery

Lava Axe deals 5 damage to target

player.

“Catch!”

Instant

An instant is just like a sorcery, except you can play it just about any time you want,

even during your opponent’s turn or in response to another spell. Like a sorcery, an

instant has its eﬀect, then you put it into your graveyard.

Instant

Enchantment

An enchantment represents a stable magical manifestation. An enchantment is a

permanent . is means two things: You can play one only at the time you could

play a sorcery, and after you play one, you’ll put it on the table in front of you, near

your lands. (Most players keep their lands closer to them, then put their other cards

closer to the middle of the table.) e card is now in play . Any of your cards in play

is called a permanent because it sticks around permanently (well, unless something

destroys it).

Some enchantments are Auras . An Aura comes into play attached to a permanent

and aﬀects that permanent while it’s in play. If the permanent leaves play, the Aura is

put into its owner’s graveyard.

Counter target spell.

Mark Poole

Holy Strength

Enchantment — Aura

Enchant creature (Target a creature

as you play this. This card comes into

play attached to that creature.)

Enchanted creature gets +1/+2.

Artifact

An artifact represents a magical relic. Like an enchantment, an artifact is a

permanent, so it’ll stay in play aﬀecting the game. Artifacts are colorless, so you can

play one no matter what kinds of lands you have.

Some artifacts are Equipment . You can pay to attach an Equipment to a creature

you control to make that creature more powerful. If the creature leaves play, the

Equipment stays in play.

Terese Nielsen

Fountain of Youth

Artifact

o 2 , o T : You gain 1 life.

Some say the fountain’s waters are the

first rains that fell over Dominaria.

Creature

Creatures ﬁght for you. ey’re permanents, but unlike any other kind of

permanent, creatures can attack and block . Each creature has power and

toughness . Its power (the ﬁrst number) is how much damage it deals in combat.

Its toughness (the second number) is how much damage must be dealt to it in

a single turn to destroy it. Creatures attack and block during the combat phase .

Unlike other types of permanents, creatures come into play with

“summoning sickness”: a creature can’t attack, or use an ability that has 6 ) in

its cost, until it has started your turn in play under your control. You can block

with a creature or play its other abilities no matter how long it’s been in play.

Artifact creatures are both artifacts and creatures. ey’re colorless like other

artifacts, and they can attack and block like other creatures. An artifact creature can

be aﬀected by anything that aﬀects artifacts, as well as anything that aﬀects creatures.

Dan Scott

Craw Wurm

OOO

Creature — Wurm

The most terrifying thing about the

craw wurm is probably the horrible

crashing sound it makes as it speeds

through the forest. This noise is so loud

it echoes through the trees and seems to

come from all directions at once.

Richard Sardinha

6/4

Mountain

Land

Although lands are permanents, they aren’t played as spells. To play a land, just put it

into play. is happens immediately, so no player can play anything else in response.

You can play a land only during one of your main phases while the stack is empty.

You can’t play more than one land a turn.

Most lands have abilities that make mana. You’ll use lands to make the mana you

need to pay for spells and abilities.

Each basic land has a mana ability that makes one mana of a particular color.

Plains make white mana < / , Islands make blue mana 6 * , Swamps make black

mana 6 # , Mountains make red mana 6 ( , and Forests make green mana 6 % .

Any land other than these ﬁve is a nonbasic land .

Basic Land — Mountain
