How about this for a fixed fetch land in Modern Horizions. Cycle of 10.

Tap, sacrifice: search your library for a basic Swamp and put it into play.

Maybe pay 1 life when you tap it or the card itself come into play tapped or the searched land comes into play tapped.

Basic swamp into play tapped would be fine and not at all broken imo. It'd be like a more specific Evolving Wilds or somesuch and the benefit of it being more specific is being a land that comes into play untapped and can tap for a different color.

If the idea is that every pair is covered in both directions it's actually 20 lands.

I'm looking to get 10 islands and 1 swamp to finish blinging out an EDH deck. I need recommendations on sweet foils. Right now, the slots are being held by unglued lands, but having 11 of the 16 or so non-foils in the deck being lands can sometimes look a little suspicious.

I'd have posted the stormy Urza's Island except they inexplicably didn't use the stormy one for the foil Arena promo.

if they had used the stormy version I suspect the promos would be a hundred dollars each

I don't play with foils unless I'm forced to though so I guess it doesn't matter.

It's the Urza's Saga artwork, but in the garbage post-8th frame with the modern foiling (shiny artwork), instead of the One True Good Frame with the old style, classier foiling (shiny frame, normal artwork).



Imagine that, but with a sick foil frame and a cool shooting star imprint in the text box

TSP islands in foil, especially the lighting one, are great. The Alara swamp that looks like a guru land is great in foil. The esper island is also really good. All the Lorwyn lands are good. Roshi's island from 9th and whatever set it was originally in is nice.

I really miss the shooting star on foils, since that was an easy indicator that it was foil and not just a weird looking printing.

I miss how much the card frame popped on old-border foils, especially on red green or blue cards. I briefly owned a mint condition foil Burning Wish from Judgment that looked like a ruby, it was so so pretty.

*points at head*

I have no idea what I have in my mass of cards and boxes off the top of my head but if you ask me if I have a specific card I'll almost immediately know if I own it or not.

Then again not too long ago I opened a box of cards I had set aside for building a deck with and I was all "heh, oh right, I already bought an Angel's Grace. Sweet, don't need to order one".
