| − | ==Overview==
| |
| − | Like its parent game ''Magic: the Gathering'', Color in [[Magic: the Gathering Puzzle Quest]] is a core mechanic whose thematic flavor influences all aspects of the game.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Each of the five colors — White ({{W}}), Blue ({{U}}), Black ({{B}}), Red ({{R}}), and Green ({{G}}) — is associated with distinct principles, and different mechanics and [[abilities]].

| − | ==In Planeswalkers==
| |
| − | Most [[Planeswalkers]] have an affinity to one, two, or even three colors, and [[#Mana bonuses|Mana bonuses]] which strongly tend to favor those affinities. A Planeswalker's [[deck]] may only include [[card]]s which have a color matching an affinity of the Planeswalker. Colorless cards can be used by any Planeswalker.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In [[Events]], some nodes have color restrictions. Such nodes may only be played by a Planeswalker sharing a color with the node, or a colorless Planeswalker.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Colorless planeswalkers===
| |
| − | Some Planeswalkers are colorless. Cards may only be included in the deck of a colorless Planeswalker which share a color with the [[Events|Event]] [[Nodes|node]] on which the Planeswalker is playing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Mana bonuses===
| |
| − | Most Planeswalkers follow simple rules for their [[mana]] bonuses:
| |
| − | #All Origins Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to five. | |
| − | #All three-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to seven.
| |
| − | #Most two-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to eight.
| |
| − | #All (non-Origins) mono-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to nine.
| |
| − | | |
| − | There are clear benefits to playing Planeswalkers with high spike bonuses with mana conversion, and when playing without mana conversion, to use Planeswalkers with a balanced spread of bonuses.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some Planeswalkers have abilities that benefit their mana bonuses.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==In Cards==
| |
| − | Each [[card]] is either colorless, or has one, two, or occasionally more colors.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Card [[abilities]] tend to be thematically linked to certain colors.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Ability separation by color is weaker in [[Magic: the Gathering Puzzle Quest]] than ''Magic: the Gathering'' for two reasons:
| |
| − | * Card design follows color principles less strictly
| |
| − | * Dual color cards can be used by any Planeswalker sharing any one of those colors, so any color-specific mechanics on such cards are more easily accessed.
