Local prismatic omen? Yeah, I said local. What?

Combos with Chain to the Rocks if you want to run W/G, but otherwise it has limited uses other than a mana fixer in Limited.

Bee you tea full!!!

Foil! Want!

Also, I like this card. Not only does it turn ANY land into a golden land, it replaces itself, and, if in any form or fashion important, helps you out with something like Coalition Victory.

Hell, you can even use it to put Chained to the Rocks on any land...

One possible downside is that you become wider open to landwalk.

Super Noob Tactics:
Cast Nylea's Presence on an enemy's land, then blast it with Peak Eruption.

Winner of the best art in the set award right here. This looks like a magic card.

almost strictly worse than abundant growth.

Fun to use with any type of landwalk effect, and the cantrip seals it. I like it.

Maybe Ethereal Armor decks will play this, since it cantrips.

This is one excellent domain enabler cantrip.
Consider this would might even have taken a rare slot if it was printed in one of the cycles using this ability.

I never liked the domain mechanic too much, but aside from Prismatic Omen,
this might be the card that makes a deck that's part domain-centered worth a try.

Or you could play it with Mask of Intolerance on your opponent's land and enjoy the bolts to his face each turn.

Eh... It's ok in limited, but even there just barely.

It doesn't increase the amount of mana you got, and opens you up to any basic landwalker. Give me a fertile ground any day.

Compare and contrast Abundant Growth, which costs 1 less but does not enable domain.

Enables Heroic. If lands get heroic.

Why didn't I think of it enabling domain, Mode? That's brilliant! I came here to give this a bad rating and now I'm excited to build a deck around it.

landwalk enabler that draws you a card okay... Another way an Eladamri, Lord of Leaves Edh elves deck can be fun.

Art is amazing. Nice work, Mr. Horsley!

It's a good fixer card. If you don't want to go mono or near-mono in a Theros draft, or if you just want to splash that one awesome card you drafted in round 3, you could do worse than having these.

Fun card. In a foil, I'll bet this card is downright gorgeous.

Great Pauper domain enabler, especially since it cantrips.

Mana fixing for multicolor decks, a full domain enabler, landwalk enabler, basic land type check enabler, untap a land of your choice for double use with arbor elf, and you don't lose a card thanks to cantrip. Not for every deck, but this will find a home in some.

High cost, and therefor low rating, but I run a Green White deck with multi colour so I can splash for counter spell etc. Because of the "draw a card", 4 of these outside my 60 cards in casual gives me "cheap" colour on my ability lands like Vault of the Archangel, but each one adds +1 to my Dungrove Elder as a "forest", and +1 to my Karametra's Acolyte mana ramp, as "devotion to green". I'm about to add 1 Verduran Enchantress to that mix so it will be a 2 card draw. Colour, Card Draw, Mana, Power, each time.... I run Abundant Growth, and Karanetra's Favour on Karametra's Acolyte. 12 cards that let me draw 24 cards as I play them.

Kird Ape, Wild Nacatl will work well, also anything with domain will work wonders.
