That aside, I always loved the ebb and flow of Bounty of the Luxa, and putting that kinda mechanic onto a creature is a lot of fun
Honestly, the Fortnite-ification of MTG is the least of our worries when you look at the burnout-inducing onslaught of previews and sets, and frankly disgusting pricing practices - like reprinting the Power Nine, but not in a tournament-legal way and in packs that will set you back a cool $1,000 to purchase
This buys a lot of time and tempo for the blue mage
You can, in the right decks, double the strength and defence of your entire battlefield presence for just five mana
It's a terrible first land drop, but as long as you have a way to make creatures, it's the most broken mana-producing land in the game
Of note, the announcement of these packs was first met by collectors with interest, especially those who hold onto sets for resale years down the road
