Is Veil of Summer the best green "counterspell" ever printed?
@morgan_coke You've said that about other cards. Put your figurative money where your mouth is; how many copies of the card in top 8 finishes of decent-sized Legacy tournaments over the next year? How many copies in Miracles lists? Greater than exactly 0?
On mtgtop8.com you can find Legacy decklists with following token producing lands, so I don't think it's too far fetched, unless the metagame is not ripe for slow control.
But I can remember a time when Landstill tapped eight (!) lands to produce a 2/2 Assembly Worker with Urza's Factory.
Moorland Haunt
Kher Keep
Gods' Eye, Gate to the Reikai
Dunes of the Dead
Gargoyle Castle
Tomb of Urami
Urza's Factory
The only issue I see with Field of the Dead is that it enters tapped.
Updated Lotus Vale! not a mythic which is nice.
Art will make a nice playmat.
Too bad it comes into play tapped. If it didnt, the card would have been really powerful and inspired a whole new slew of ramp decks legacy. But since it doesnt, I don't see how it could see play.
Maybe in Turbo Eldrazi as a 1 of to get with crop rotation since they're already playing Candelabras that can untap it?
It also neatly combos with blood sun.
Not quite. The storm trigger is going to put all the copies on the stack at once, and you'll pick the new copies then. This leyline trigger won't trigger until the storm trigger finishes resolving. Which means the leyline triggers will all go onto the stack which will already contain storm copies.
Then it's first in, last out.
Gonna play it in a stifle deck, because unlike the old tap for a bunch lands this is a trigger and not a replacement. Yessssss.
Lotus Field is legit good. It may come into play tapped, but the lands you sack don't have to be untapped so you don't lose that much mana. Natural Balance? Titania, Protector of Argoth?
Good finds. It should also play nicely with Flagstones. Or while we're at it, Cataclysm, since you're going to have quite the headstart with a land that taps for three mana. Or Winter Orb.
Not quite, unless you played the Amulet with no lands in play. Otherwise, you would lose two cards compared to one.
