Sacrifice any number of lands. Search your library for that many land cards, put them into play tapped, then shuffle your library.


At first glance, it just looks kinda weaker Natural Balance, but a closer look at it may reveal a possible, interesting combo piece. Came to mind pair it with Nature's Lore/Three Visits and other Rampant Growth effects, combine them all with some obcure sleepers like Planar Birth, throw in some mana boosters like Heartbeat of Spring or Bubbling Muck, or even the awesome Natural Balance itself, add to the mix some card selection in the form of Sensei's Divining Top or Sylvan Library (to make benefit of all the shuffle effects available), getting this way an engine that could do some kind of cheat with an obscene amount of lands.

What do you think about it? Do you have some combo suggestions?

I would think it has alot of potential in 43lands and Eternal Garden variants. Not really sure how to fit it into my Eternal Garden yet.

Someone mentioned in some thread that you can go grab all the pieces for a Mindslaver lock with it. (Except for the Mindslaver itself)

Now I just need a Intuition/Gifts pile for it...
