Birthing Pod + Flip Cards? What's their mana cost?

Asked by TylerJohns 13 years ago

Just wondering. If I sacrificed a flipped card (where then no mana cost is shown) what's the mana cost?

Do I get a 1 drop?

Correct.

The backside of a flip card (Insectile AberrationMTG Card: Insectile Aberration has no converted mana cost, like certain other cards that have 0 CMC... HypergenesisMTG Card: Hypergenesis and Dryad ArborMTG Card: Dryad Arbor being relevant, I suppose.

Lands, tokens, and flip cards all have a CMC of zero.

@ landgrafb: Some tokens do have a CMC, but only if they're copies of cards. A generic, non-copy token has a CMC of 0.
