Its art and name evoke calm, open landscapes that serve as the foundation for civilization. Mechanically, \u003cem\u003ePlains\u003c\/em\u003e defines white’s mana base. It’s simple, elegant, and eternal – the blueprint for every basic land printed since \u003cem\u003eAlpha\u003c\/em\u003e (1993). Because it’s a basic land, it can appear in any number, making it one of the few truly unlimited resources in deck construction. In gameplay, it does exactly what white decks need: provides consistent access to white mana, enabling everything from \u003cem\u003eSwords to Plowshares\u003c\/em\u003e to \u003cem\u003eWrath of God\u003c\/em\u003e to \u003cem\u003eSerra Angel\u003c\/em\u003e and beyond. One of the main strengths of \u003cem\u003ePlains\u003c\/em\u003e is its consistency, it always comes into play untapped and is immune to non-basic hate cards (e.g. \u003cem\u003eWasteland, Blood Moon, Price of Progress\u003c\/em\u003e). Because \u003cem\u003ePlains\u003c\/em\u003e is a basic land card it’s legal in any format and a core part of nearly every successful white deck ever printed – from White Weenie to UW Control to Death and Taxes. All these decks owe their existence to the humble Plains. \u003cem\u003ePlains\u003c\/em\u003e is not on the Reserved List since basic lands are always reprintable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"artwhirled","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44762018250797,"sku":null,"price":0.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/8000\/6957\/files\/Plains_Portal_Library_of_Alexandria_Close_Up_front_a_white.jpg?v=1775126786","url":"https:\/\/artwhirled.com\/products\/plains","provider":"Art Whirled","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
