Funny, I thought a card that wants 3+X untapped lands to draw X cards did care about your board state.
While that's *technically* true, it's not really true. Land count and board presence are not the same thing.
In eternal formats, they are. I mean, this won't see play in Legacy, but it will in EDH.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
Okay. Dumb question but does Flamerush Rider swing for a ton with Twinflame or what? Does it go infinite combat damage? I mean one copies the other then creates another copy, which makes another etc. right or am I missing something?

The copy from his ability is put into play attacking, so it is never declared as an attacker and thus the ability of the token doesn trigger

So what your saying is that because the copy of FRR etbf attacking it misses the necessary trigger that makes the copy?

Exactly All the "when creature attacks" trigger happens when the creature is declared as an attacker - similar example, if Flamerush rider copies an attacking Brimaz, king of oreskos, the copy won't make a cat token, because it was never declared as an attacker.
