Different take on Defiled Forest.
Oh, that's an interesting idea. It can either be an ETB tapped dual, or a land that fixes your mana without accelerating you (but slightly better than ones that cost "
,
" because it sets you back a turn, but not a land card, but worse because those mostly produce any colour).
It looks like an interesting idea to me, but I'm too cross-eyed to see if it's strictly better or strictly worse than something else.
Very nice. Sometimes it's Gilt-Leaf Palace without Elves, sometimes it's Darigaaz's Caldera without
; so that's a bit worse in both cases, but getting your choice between them is rather excellent.
I was momentarily confused by the reference to the tribal land, but I know what you mean :) People wouldn't like a plain "ETB tapped, no upside" land, but it would make it easier to have a name to refer to in this sort of conversation. I think now I'd usually call them "gates" as outside RTR that's basically what they are.
Oh yes, I forgot about Golgari Guildgate and friends. I still think of them as the Coastal Tower cycle, but that only existed for allied colours, and I completely blanked on the Guildgates! But yes, that's what I meant!
Ah! I'd forgotten that cycle too, somehow, that's an even better expression (although it doesn't work for enemy colours).
