Title: Extort, EDH Commander, Color Identity
Post by: Moneekahh on February 09, 2013, 04:06:01 PM
Arguing with my boyfriend over this.. Can he put  {Blind Obedience} in his mono white EDH deck? I say no because of the hybrid mana symbol for extort.

Nope he cant.
All mana symbols decide a cards color identity.

His argument is that color identity is ignored in reminder text? Say it ain't so!

You may put Blind Obedience in a mono white deck:

903.4. The Commander variant uses color identity to determine what cards can be in a deck with a certain commander. The color identity of a card is the color or colors of any mana symbols in that card's mana cost or rules text, plus any colors defined by its characteristic-defining abilities (see rule 604.3) or color indicator (see rule 204).

903.4b Reminder text is ignored when determining a card's color identity. See rule 207.2.

RESOLVED

Words can hardly express my excitement for this! No longer will we have to go on the Internet and check the official rulings on our own!
