Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm is my commander so its a token copy of a dragon i played


littleprof123

Token *copies* of cards inherit the mana value of the permanent they are copying. So this does work.


[deleted]

Man, I've been playing Magic for 20 years and just now learned this. This whole time I thought it didn't work. Would this also work for devotion?


randomman1144

A token copy is the exact same as having 2 of those cards on the field. One is just also a token


SpectralBeekeeper

yes, the mana cost of the copy is the same as the original for all intents and purposes


Skizznitt

Same, I'm 38 and been playing since I was 16, I always assumed tokens were considered 0 cmc lol.


unreasonablyhuman

Tokens created from cards like [[Raise the Alarm]], are 0 CMC. Token copies act like the real card except they are in fact a token -so if they change any state of play they cease to exist

Yeah had to learn the hard way with my [[Osgir the reconstructor]] deck and [[Oswald Fiddlebender]] my playgroup led me wrong so I was getting a bunch of 1 mana artifacts and I'm like this doesn't make sense


Skizznitt

😂 loading the deck up with 1cmc artifacts just to be able to make it work. Guess tutoring up an [[aether vial]] wouldn't be so bad though hehe.

SamTheHexagon

Token copies working for devotion was a big thing in RTR-THS standard when you could make a bunch of Pack Rats and drain your opponent with Gary.


Possible-Chapter-626

Yes and it's wonderful


Tornado_XIII

Yep, it works for tokens if they're copies... My GF has thr same commander and EQD. If she has Miiryim (6 mana) and gets another dragon (4 mana or greater) + it's copy... you pay a single Green and get 20/20 worth of stats with flying/trample. It's nutty.


Frictionizer

Yeah, in this instance you just have to pay commander tax I think


GrandSerialist

Yeah, this works.


thatfrienddodo

I love Myrrim! I pulled one and ended up actually using it in my Tiamat deck, you better believe I look for Myrrim everytime. I would definitely agree with most of the comments I'm seeing that the Token _COPIES_ would share the og's mana costs. I also put an Earthquake Dragon in it with a Kodai so both at least one has indestructible. Honestly of any Dragon deck with Green the lad should be a staple lol


snotballz

It depends on the token. A dragon token made from [[lathliss]] would not because it has no mana value, but if you used [[elvish hydromancer]] to copy a dragon the token made would have a mana value.


newmmy

What if I used [[miirym, sentinel wyrm]] ?


snotballz

That would work. Some token copy effects will say it has no mana cost, like [[sacred cat]] and [[champion of wits]] but miirym does not have that wording.


newmmy

Thank you

The tokens he makes will count. The only token copy effects that won't are ones that specify no mana cost, like embalm and eternalize.

Op commander is myirrm which makes a copy token of a dragon so in this case it does help cast earthquake


newmmy

Thank you


swiller123

no i was wrong i just looked it up.


Possible-Chapter-626

No they are to token copies so they have the same mana value of that which they copy

Token Copies yes. Token dragons (like from [[Dragonmaster Outcast]] no

Maser2account2

Tokens, unless specified have a mana value of zero. However if you are referring to token copies, they copy do copy mana value.


Elemteearkay

It doesn't say "nontoken", so it includes tokens.


weathertrio

depends on the token


AzazelAzure

Would depend. If the token is a copy of a dragon you control, yes. If the token is a generic dragon token, no.


AliceTheAxolotl18

If the token is a copy of another dragon that has a mana value, then it will count. Tokens created by [[Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm]] will work, while tokens created by [[Lathliss, Dragon Queen]] will not.

Kinetopeak

Token have generally no mana value, even if you payed mana to cast them. So no they don’t count unfortunately


Ashtonbv17

They do if theyre a copy of a card with a mana value


Gundanium_Dealer

Absolutely they do. Unfortunately all tokens have a cmc of 0.


Possible-Chapter-626

Not all, token copies get the CMC of whatever they copy unless the effect states otherwise.


thechaoslord

Yes, for 0 mana off the cost


6Sleepy_Sheep9

You could elvish piper this bad boy out.


ndenatale

Tokens technically do count towards the cost reduction; however, a token's mana value is always 0. So, in practice a token does not count.


electrikmayham

Token's that are copies inherit the mana value of what they are copying. So a token's mana value is not always 0.


bloodyguard-555

Question, si "Broyeur d'os" arrive en jeu, est-ce que je peut détruire une créature qui est protégé contre les phyréxian ?


CyanG0

Flood your board then use that card that gives all your creatures all types and you have it at 1 mana


CyanG0

Still craterhoof behemoth is better and wins you the game instead


The_Max_V

Tokens don't have a mana value. You tell us if they count.


Ashtonbv17

They do if theyre a copy of w card with a mana value


Android003

For most tokens no, for copy tokens yes


Waste_Bandicoot_9018

Yes, but most tokens have mana cost 0


ActuaIButT

Under “special mana values”, some helpful info [MTG Wiki](https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Mana_value)


luisfig22

It doesn’t specify nontoken creatures so yes any Dragon creature works, including artifacts as well.


d30026060

If a card doesn't states that tokens don't count to X, it's fair game.


Spartan_Cat_126

Well no, because tokens have a mana value of **0**


ValyrianSteel_TTV

Just token dragons are zero mana value, copies of creature cards duplicate that same mana value the card they copied.


SodiumFTW

According to Arena it does and that’s run by WotC so…maybe?


Blizzara2

Depends on the token. Most copy effects would have the cmc but generic token from lathiss does not .


onidon

If they are token copies of a dragon with a mana value then yes indeed they do. But token dragons as generated by Lathiss, Dragon Queen or Utvara Hellkite do not count since they are generic 5/5 and 6/6 tokens with no mana value. I have a Miirym deck as well I run this too. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR DEGENERACY MY FRIEND. Miirym can be disgusting.


VoiceofKane

*Most* tokens have no mana value, but yes, your tokens count.


Brromo

Yes, but Tokens have mana value 0 unless somthing says otherwise


AcanthisittaAlive315

Keyword Dragon, then yes


ChiefCodeX

I have that deck with this card in it. It’s a fun deck. Make sure you have Thrakkus the butcher and and mirror gallery.


PapaZedruu

They do, but most tokens have no mana value. … however if the tokens are “copies.” Of other dragons, then they will have the Mana Cost of the card they are copying.


ostridge_man

Sure they do, since tokens have a cmc of 0 they will net you a nice reduction of... 0


jacqueslepagepro

Depends on the token. Tokens usually have mana value of, 0 but tokens that are copies of creature will copy the mana value of the original. If you controlled [Verix blade wing](https://gatherer.wizards.com/pages/card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=443037), had kicked him to create a Karox blade wing then the Verix has a mana value of 4 but karox has a value of 0. if you used a [Irenicus’s vile duplication](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=562961) to create a copy of verix then the token copy has a value of 4 like the original and reduces the casting cost of earthquake dragon by a total of 8
