Hey team, just wanted to quickly remind everyone that Myriad Landscape is coming back and should once again drop to bargain-bin prices for some time. As such anyone who hasn't grabbed at least one playset by now should probably do so. I bought 10 (2 playsets and 2 for EDH) and I wish that I grabbed more because I typically max them out in all of my lists. It's the kind of card that you can blindly jam as a 4-of into any 1-2 color list as a low opportunity cost 2-for-1 with a whole host of additional upsides. It's a shuffle effect, it's 3 landfall triggers, it's great with cards like Ramunap Excavator, Titania, Protector of Argoth, Sun Titan, etc. and it even works with things like Cabal Coffers, Emeria, the Sky Ruin, Engulf the Shore on and on and on. I know that the card doesn't get much spotlight since it's never been legal outside of Legacy and Vintage but I promise you that the card is ridiculously powerful in anything but the most cutthroat combo metas. If the card were Standard legal every deck would have 4 and it's a must-have for formats like EDH. Heck, even in duel EDH (which is essentially Legacy) you can see that most decks field it. The card is absolutely bonkers and is easily one of the best possible things to be doing on turn 1 for the vast majority of MP decks.
I run one in each of my two commander decks...it's a decent card...you usually manage to sneak it in during a turn where you dont need the extra mana and I usually dont mind the colorless mana since my commander decks are two colors only and I later use it to either improve my color base or speed up the deck a little.
Speaking of great multiplayer lands, the new Dominaria spoiler Cabal Stronghold looks promising. Tap for colorless or pay 3, gain black mana equal to number of basic swamps. It has some downsides but might be worth considering still. It will produce 1 less than Cabal Coffers would, and it doesn't work with Leechridden Swamp.. BUT, it does offer 1 colorless mana at the beginning of the game when you normally wouldn't be able to use coffers for anything.
At the very least, it may be a new budget version of coffers.

I'm much more excited about Gilded Lotus coming back. The fact that we got Coalition Relic and Gilded Lotus in back-to-back sets is absurd. These are eternal staples that will always make the cut even 10 years from now. You don't even have to think, you can just add them to your deck and they're always fantastic. I'm blown away with how good Dominaria is.

I dont play it in my Sun Titan deck through...I use Mycosynth Wellspring and Claws of Gix to get plenty of lands (no acceleration out of it however)

I'm liking quite a few lands this time around - Memorial to Folly, Memorial to Genius both look good to me!
I am most definitely already in the process of typing my set review.
