MTG Salvation

I don't think it's a big enough change that it really matters in the market place. The only price changes would be in knee jerk buys like Triplets.

The day after the announcement I bought a playset of foil Chromatic Lanterns. They were already an EDH staple (or at the very least, a near-staple). Got mine for a little over $10 apiece, now the cheapest on TCGP are approaching $15. Even if they don't go up a huge amount, they're always extremely playable (I've got 21 EDH decks and am always building more). I went with foils because EDH is a pimpable format, and less likely to get reprinted in something like the annual Commander decks.

I think the boat has been missed for anything that would've made a great impact.

Still requires that you can produce the mana. No way does that go up.

Don't know if the price will go up but transguild promenade and rupture spire stopped being budget only after this rules update.

They are both under $.20. What am I missing.

Bring to Light, Exert Influence, and Engineered Explosives are the only other cards I can come up with that really care about this change. Fellwar Stone is already a somewhat popular mana rock, but I count one general and three other cards it now enables better.

While not exactly about the topic at hand, I really wish they would make exceptions for the Bringers, now that you can produce off color mana. They are really unique and always overlooked because of the insane requirement. I also wish the same would be true for Fist of suns, could you imagine casting your Kozilek, Butcher of truth for cmc-5? Pipe dreams, I know. On topic, sunburst cards can be considered now in everything. Not damaging to the format at all, but I'd like to think some brews can now abuse these once niche-only cards.

I read what the card does and thought it sounded fun. I bought some foils because they're a buck each and it'll be fun to play this after dropping a Chromatic Lantern.

Overall, I doubt this affects too many cards. Stuff that lets you cast cards owned by opponents (Grinning Totem, Praetor's Grasp, Ornate Kanzashi, Nightveil Specter, Muse Vessel) gets a little stronger if you run a ton of rainbow lands and stuff like Lantern. Sunburst and Converge similarly get a little stronger with Rainbow lands.

Rainbow lands get a little stronger because of the above cards. Prismatic Omen seems like one that might move a little, since it's already got a lot of other applications.

Does this mean a Fallen Empires rare might finally be sought out Rainbow Vale

I would keep an eye on Undiscovered Paradise and Lotus Vale.

Eh, that was already my "1:draw a card and gain 1 life" in my Zedruu, the greathearted.
