What is the Progenitor Mimic Token's Mana Cost?

Asked by BossLeiser 11 years ago

Arbitrarily, let's say I have an Orochi Leafcaller on the field and play a Progenitor Mimic copying it. Each turn, I get a token copy of Orochi Leafcaller. If I were to try to sacrifice one of these tokens for Patron of the Orochi , how much mana would the Patron cost, 6G or 6GG?

My gut instinct is 6G because the tokens have all copiable values of Orochi Leafcaller and that has a mana cost of G, but I'd like to make sure that I'm not mistaken.

You're correct. Most tokens have a CMC of 0, but tokens which are copies of non-tokens will pick up the mana cost of the card as well. So Orochi Leafcaller tokens are G
