The release of Strixhaven: School of Mages will come with a small Magic: The Gathering update
During today’s DailyMTG stream on Twitch.tv/magic, Wizards of the Coast has announced that the release of the upcoming magical school-themed Magic: The Gathering set, Strixhaven: School of Mages, will come with a small update about a widely-used MTG term.
With the release of Strixhaven, “Converted Mana Cost”, the number equal to the total amount of mana in its mana cost, regardless of color, will now be called “Mana Value”.
As you can see in one of the 5 new Command spells from Strixhaven revealed today, the term “mana value” is used instead of “converted mana cost”.
This is a small update that should help newer players understand the rules around mana value more. “Converted mana cost” is not that confusing, but “mana value” will probably make it easier to understand.
