| So Landfall, eh? |         I think everyone might want to grab up some Knight of the Reliquary immediately. They are around a dollar right now, and with this new mechanic, I could see them at least hitting 5 dollars. I could see something like: untapping with a Knight in play and a landfall guy, play a terramorphic expanse, trigger landfall, search out a plains or forest with expanse, trigger landfall, use Knight to sac the forest or plains, go get another terramorphic expanse, trigger landfall, sac terramorphic expanse to get a plains or forest, trigger landfall. So in one turn, you trigger landfall 4 times, and Knight gets +3/+3. All for basically 0 mana. This is going to be ridiculous.

|         Oh, and you're getting all of that land out of your deck so that you can drop bombs consistently. Wonderful. Way to be wizards for making yet another ridiculous mechanic. It would sicken me to think if a landfall trigger dealt 2 damage to a target. Make no mistake though, a deck WILL be built around this and it WILL be good. Because honestly, who's gonna stop you from playing lands?

|         Has there been any other landfall creature or card revealed other than that 6/6 for 6 mana creature yet? I was just wondering because if they make all the landfall cards cost 5 or 6 mana it may not be quite so broken.

|         Yea, where is a Stifle effect. I know I'd like to see one.

|         They have yet to reveal any others besides the 6/6 for 6. However, I bet they get at least one or two out there that cost 3 or 4 mana. Their landfall might not be as potent as getting 4/4s but it still will probably be useful.

|         A red enchantment that does 2 damage when you play a land that only costs 3 mana would be cool, we will see.

|         Maybe they will reprint Life From The Loam or the bounce lands...

|         Nah, they'd give it a different name instead of reprinting it.

|         The lair lands would be interesting in this set.
