The one notable part of this is that those Landfall cards are in a format with both Evolving Wilds and bouncelands, so they'll be even stronger than you expect.Ī strange pick, and one of the few mechanics we're almost certain never to see new cards from again (due to disinterest in the mechanic and a lack of design space), but it works well in a set with multiple counter themes (GW and BG). The only non-rare is Jaddi Offshoot, and otherwise the selections are ramp targets and/or cards for Constructed (and Emeria Angel, I guess). However, no matter how different the set is, it's still a set for Limited, so let's get to analyzing it!Īs a reminder, this is a Masters set so it's going to have a lot of mechanics in it, and some will be more important than others.Īfter putting in basically every single Masters design, Landfall is finally here, and unfortunately it doesn't do too much. The set itself is also weird: other than Mana Drain the majority of the value is in the rares (and I'll do an update on that after the Limited Review), and the themes are ones you wouldn't find in the average set, even one with as much of a Modern focus as this one (and not the easiest to find, as you saw in my initial coverage).

The release schedule for Iconic Masters has been so weird-we hear nothing about it forever (most of the Masters sets had teasers through promo art if nothing else), get the whole set revealed in September, and then nothing else about it for two months before we get a rare November set release sandwiched between a ton of other things.
