This page is here to explain any specific rules related to mechanics and cards from Dominaria Reborn (DRB).

Face-down Lands

Two mechanics in DRB turn lands face-down, and two interact with face-down lands.

• Nullify
• Ecocide
• One with nothing
• Voidwalk

The Magic Comprehensive Rules say this about face-down permanents:

707.2a If a face-up permanent is turned face down by a spell or ability, it becomes a 2/2 face-down creature with no text, no name, no subtypes, and no mana cost. A permanent that enters the battlefield face down that wasn’t cast as a face-down spell also has these characteristics. These values are the copiable values of that object’s characteristics.

However, because face-down nonland permanents don't exist within DRB this rule can safely be ignored for Limited & Block Constructed purposes. Instead, face-down lands are treated as follows:

Land

­: Add to your mana pool.

Sacrifice a face-up permanent: Turn this land face-up. Activate this ability any time you could cast a sorcery.
