How does Protean Hulk work?

Asked by Sniperops 10 years ago

When he dies, do i search for any number of cards whos CMC is 6 or less, Or search for cards who's mana cost will equal 6 or less when I add up all of their mana costs?

GreatSword says... Accepted answer #1

It says "total converted mana cost", so you combine them. So you could grab 3 2-drops, a 4-drop and a 2-drop, etc....

Hey Sniperops, Greatsword is 100% correct. It can be a max of 6 converted mana cost in total.

Anything that adds up to 6 total or less.

you could just grab 1 or 2 creatures with a cmc of 1 if you wanted. or 6 with a cmc of 1 or 3 with a cmc of 2. etc. mix it up play around.

If you get anything besides
1x Arcbound Ravager
4x Disciple of the Vault
4x Ornithopter
4x Shield Sphere

You might have found a more efficient use for the effect though.

It's a legacy deck called 'Flash Hulk'

which uses Elvish Spirit Guide to cast Manamorphose into Flash with the Protean Hulk

That particular draw is hilariously unlikely to happen, but it can kill the opponent when they are on the play, on their upkeep before they draw a card.
