    Default Re: mtg cards difference between power and toughness

    Power is the amount of damage that creature deals in combat.

    Toughness is the amount of damage the creature can take before it is killed.

    So for example if we look at the canopy spider, if you attack with it you will deal 1 damage.

    If you block with it or otherwise it takes damage, it wont die until it had taken 3 damage
