Cranial Plating in a non black deck?
Commander Deck Help forum

so I'm running red green blue. Just wondering if that's legal!
This might be a rules question, but I'm not sure. Either way, smackjack answered your question. I've run into a similar problem with both Commander decks and other singleton formats that care about color identity.

Well thank you for telling me before I had to learn the hard way!

In the future, use the Rules Q&A for rules questions, not this forum.
The link is right up on the header bar in between "Forums" and "Articles."

no, cranial plating has
in the text, making its color identity black. All text on the card, except for reminder text, counts as color identity. Blind Obedience has the color identity of white only because the black part is in the extort reminder text. Also, flip cards like Elbrus, the Binding Blade
Flip is black since the back of the card is black (i learned this the hard way :P).
