M14 & Dual Lands

[Frothandslosh]

I don't get why everyone wants to see lands reprinted, as good as they are. I'm more interested in seeing new lands being printed.

[MisterJH]

Because filter lands are amaaaazing

Painlands were in both 9th and X editions though and those involve paying life. Would a reprint be likely since its been a number of years since weve seen em?

Those were pre-NWO, or close enough. (Read more here) they try hard not to do things like that anymore.

Wizards makes the Core sets as simple as they can now, because they see that as the entry set for new players. New players universally hate paying life - they don't see the advantages.

For that matter, I don't know if they'd understand the advantage of Filter lands, but that is to be determined.

I agree. I would like to see new lands myself, but we have 3 sets of duals currently (Tap lands, Shock lands and Gates). I wonder if they'll even do a new cycle of duals. Or just leave it at 2 upon rotation.

Ah I see.

I honestly like dual lands. It gives you a chance to untap without any cost besides you know you need that certain land. Lol so i see new colored dual lands like red/white black/white green/blue and all of the rest lol

Because there honestly doesn't seem like there's a whole lot left. We've got fetches, pain, filter, enemy, gates, shocks, artifact, cycle, and M1x lands already.  I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but what else could they do?

[Barzini]

This topic got me thinking, what about lands using a discard, graveyard or reveal mechanics?

Something along the lines of "discard/remove from the graveyard/reveal X cards that this land could generate or it comes into play tapped."

Still, pain lands seem to be a logical next step if they are going the reprint route.

[Quackmaster5]

What are the possibilities of shards lands? I mean, with the meta being mostly three colored and they already brought back exalted which was a shards mechanic, could they possibly forgo the rare duals and reprint shards? Or would that be pointless with the gates already being the uncommon lands of the standard block? 

FYI I would LOVE to see some rare shards lands.

[MisterJH]

Some shards with a shockish effect to enter untapped maybe?

{Grove of the Burnwillows} never got a cycle, they can always still do those.

[Quackmaster5]

They wouldn't do that but maybe a dual land approach where it depends on what types of land is in play already or maybe if you have a permanent of one of its colors in play.

ie I have  {Guul Draz Assassin} in play already so  {Crumbling Necropolis} comes into play untapped.

That would be great. Perhaps they'll do it in the Commander product? Cant wait for a new round of {Punishing Fire} abuse.

It could be possible. Whatever lands they end up being will likely work in tandem with the fall set.

[InfinitiveDivinity]

I just really don't want Bolt Lands.

[MisterJH]

What are bolt lands?

[InfinitiveDivinity]

What are bolt lands?

They don't exist, they're lands that would {Lightning Bolt} you instead of {Shock}
