What color(s) is Garruk Relentless?

Asked by BatmanUriah 12 years ago

I was going to put Garruk Relentless  Flip in my Trostani, Selesnya's Voice EDH, but I noticed the little half-green, half-black circle next to his name. Does this indicate his color(s)? I know his casting cost only contains green, so I'd like to know if I'm going to be able to add him to my commander deck.

That circle does indeed determine his colors (for that side anyway). He is B/G, so he can't be used in your deck unfortunately.

I believe that he would not be allowed in the deck, for the reason he technically is a green and black planeswalker. I know split cards count as all colors on the entire card, so Ready / Willing counts as green, white, and black, thus not being allowed in your EDH deck.

Also. both sides of a dual-faced card contribute to colour identity of the whole card, thus making Garruk Relentless  Flip ' colour identity green and black.

Another example is how using Elbrus, the Binding Blade  Flip in a monowhite EDH deck can't be done because Withengar on the other side makes the card's colour identity black.

Thanks for the answers guys. I didn't even notice the little color identification circle until today. =/
