This card has made so many 3+ color decks tick, 5 stars even with the pain.

You don't want this when you opponent is playing Rishadan Port D:

I may be shooting myself in the foot by saying this, but... I actually like Rupture Spire more than this.
This is still an excellent and iconic card, and definitely worth using in any 4-5 color deck. (For 3, we have Alara, and for 2, we have Ravnica.)

@ themicronaut, before Ravnica, Alara, Glimmervoid, Tendo Ice Bridge, Forbidden Orchard, Gemstone Caverns et al, it was a hands-down five star card, but I honestly feel that these days, there are enough alternatives that it's only a 4.5. I still consider it the best five-colour land, but not every multicolour deck needs it as badly as they used to.

I miss the days when this card was relevant. You're never going to need this unless you decide for some reason you want to build a four color deck without green. And even then, I feel like you could make do with just fetches and the Ravnican duals.

I don't think this card is so overpowering that it shouldn't be reprinted. It says "whenever" it becomes tapped, not just when you activate it's ability. If your opponent taps your lands, City of Brass will deal damage to you. I really hope they reprint this for M11, or least bring back some of the pain-lands.

Just use the cyrillic a, like so: City of Brаss. Don't auto-card link it though, it won't work.

@SilverSkyz: How exactly did you do that? Also, can someone tell me how people autocard a phrase that's different from the card's name, but still have it link to the card? Thanks.

Or you could just auto card when you write City of Brass. achilleselbow, look at the formating tips, under where it says auto card.

We need a five colored land right now in Standard. Reflecting Pool was waaaaay overpowered, but either this or Grand Colisseum would have done a great job.
Even if for some dumb reason NO other color-fixer (like an Onslaught Fetch or a Ravnica Shock Dual) makes the cut, you can BET that City of Brass will get hailed as the iconic REPRESENT of Gold Lands.
If they use Ancient Ziggurat instead, I'mma scream/cry/kill a puppy. :p

But yeah honestly Reflecting Pool + Vivid anything instead...
