These ramp cards also have passive effects and activated abilities that are well worth playing, so its not a Mind Stone situation where youll want to cash this in for a card when ramp isnt good enough
The card pretends to be balanced by entering the battlefield tapped and doesnt untap on your untap step, instead, forcing you to skip a turn to untap it
And no matter what Randy says there's no room for Sands of Time
Doing so lets you draw a card for free
A Battle of the Five Armies co-op game thats similar to the Turtle Team-Up mode released in March will drop next year, providing another potential entry point to the game
Personally I don't have a strong connection to the fantasy genre, but there are plenty of people who do, and while some of the criticism from this group (things like "if someone plays a Universes Beyond card against me I'm selling my collection") comes across very hyperbolic, I do think it's true that there are people who will enjoy Magic less as it moves into other IPs and further away from its fantasy roots
