Land art is awesome. Seems like an interesting card for constructed if you play 5 colors. You get to choose one color, opponents choses two?
No. The card functions like this:
Reveal Paliano, the High City as you draft it. The player to your right chooses a color, you choose another color, then the player to your left chooses a third color.
T: Add nothing to your mana pool.
Yeah. If most of these cards functioned outside of drafts the conversation would be totally different. Luckily they DO function in pack drafts as well as Cube drafts, so it's not like they'll get opened and thrown away.
Yeah. But I honestly think they'll need to go in some sort of multiplayer cube- while lots of them are really interesting and do very cool things, they overall power level isn't consistant nor powerful enough to make it worth making a mess of a powered cube.

Oh yeah. Absolutely. My cube is set up for 8-player EDH and this stuff all seems pretty natural in there. Luckily the application is so narrow that I should be able to get most of the desired cards for cheap. Like this land should be $.40 in a month or two.
Most of the Draft-matters cards could work in multiplayer casual formats easily, just have a pre-game discussion to set up those cards and conspiracies.
Pretty cool how the Draft-matters cards have their own slot in the booster.

Errrrhmergerd, nutha card dat doesn't werk outsides da draft.
Seriously people, do you know what this set is?
Calm your tits. This set is literally designed to be a cube stand-in, so of course everything is focused on drafting. And of the cards that only work in draft, you'll only ever see one, maybe two depending on if they're on the foil sheet, per draft. I don't quite remember how they handled that with DFC's.
Also, I really like unexpected(Which is mislabeled in the title BTW), it's free reign to pick any one off-color bomb.
Sorry, I forgot to include my sarcasm smiley face. This one will have to so for now
You have made the point I was trying to highlight, I'm kind of sick of seeing the "Not another stupid draft only card" comment come up, as it has several times at the start of this thread. I love drafting, I love this set and I think the draft only cards are sweet. The fact that they are in the land slot is brilliant and the goodies for other formats is just gravy. I just wish the constructed only crowd would go somewhere else to gripe.

The card has no real purpose in constructed.

Most sets are like that anyway. Lots of chaff with a few good cards just to get people to buy it.
