THIS is our ramp card for M14? It's like you want us not to like this set, Wizards.

Strictly worse than Caravan Vigil, which no one played.

If it was ANY land... Oh boy. As it is... Meh. 2/5

Now do remember LordOfTheUniverse, if it said "Any Land", we'd be getting Sylvan Scrying.



WAIT, WHY DIDN'T WE?!

Boo, I want the original art back with the photobombing minotaur.

Because Farseek was too good.

I have a feeling these are going to go really late and multicolor decks will be strong...viva la slivers!

I love that illustration. That's some really funky plane we must be seeing, since it generates banana mountains! I hope we'll visit it, sometime in the future.

Caravan Vigil was a nice little land hunter that had a nice combo potential involved. This... well, it's just so less elegant it sucks.

Don't get the really low rating, it does what it says and helps decks using 3 or more colours to get land. An ok card that would find room in decks that are unable to get better alternatives

Power creep must have spread too far...

For Caravan Vigil, it had Morbid which rules it out of reprinting in core sets unless Wizards decide this will be a theme for the set

Do we have to be denied any form of 2-mana land acceleration (except mana elves)? No Rampant Growth, no Fertile Ground, not even Explore? I'd even take Vine Trellis now.

Much needed mana fixing in the set and cheap enough to actually count as a land drop in my opinion. Late game it at least thins your deck to give you a higher chance of drawing your bomb.

Anyone else kinda just want Rampant Growth back?

This art reminds me of Time Spiral block. And it seems rather obvious that the reason M14 has such a low power level is because Theros is going to be ridiculous ;)

At least the foil is absolutely gorgeous.

This card can be useful! Why all the hating!

On the plus side, we get four different cards that actually accelerate:
Elvish Mystic, which taunts the people who wanted to re-use their Llanowar Elves in standard but will make Elf players in other formats happy.
Manaweft Sliver, which is the same speed as Rampant Growth, but gives up durability for versatility (and the ability to grab some equipment and beat down).
Verdant Haven, which gives some bonus life.
Darksteel Ingot, available for every color, and making new EDH players happy if they didn't grab it from one of the precons already.

At the very least, it can help smooth out manabases in limited. Plus, nice art.
