Title: Lands and mana symbol

I think a nice touch would be to put the mana symbols next to lands of what they produce like the creatures have for mana cost

On the card lists? Wouldn't that be too confusing?

No I think I would look nice like on dual lands or othe lands that are not basic sometimes u just don't remember what mana they produce like this u can see it right away visually

Not here, and I'm not a big fan of democracy in general, to be honest ;)

I don't believe we need that. It would just be a lil out of place. Artifacts don't have a greyer colourless bit beside 'em. 😊

Wouldn't be great to get a quick reference as to what mana a given land produces? Perhaps a on off button then for the people that want it and this that don't

And what of the lands that do more than just produce mana? Or ones that have multiple sources available but some at cost? Or Shadowmoor/Eventide Filter lands? That would be to cluttered!

I personally use a lot of non-basics in my non-Standard decks, this option would make no sense at all for many lands that exist in Magic. I don't mean to shoot you down, but beyond Basics and Basic 2-color Duals, it get's to complicated.

I agree with u I only want the symbols for straight forward mana specifically for all the duals not the abilities they do

Agreed. CMC only please! Because frankly, lands aren't colored permanents. Besides what would you do for {Durborg, Tomb of Yagwin}. It produces black of course, but the deck maker might not let me put that in any EDH I want. :P
