It's a commander card so don't get excited about Tron since I've seen some people hope that will work.

Well the extra mana from Tron lands are intrinsic to the card not the type right? At best this would just serve to cover what land you're missing in the set so you can get the extra mana from the other two.

It is an autoinclude for anyone running Nine Finger Gate decks.

Can it cover for both the missing lands? Let's say, Urza's Tower and this one makes the Tower give three mana?

Yes, urza's, mine, tower and power-plant are all different land types so this counts for all of them.

The only difference between Chant and Silence is you can still attack with Silence.

But neither is truly a lock because people can always respond to or counter the scepter copy.

These cards look really cool and none of them appear, to my extremely amateurish eye, to be so powerful as to be format warping. But just really cool.

Lol Ugin's Labyrinth works with sea gate restroation , emeria's call, cauldra complete, and all the bad brothers war artifact creatures with prototype.

I am having my doubts its any good considering the deck building requirements and how easy it is to blow up a land right now, but its interesting.

The site has been updated with pictures, and confirms the Black Farewell is from the commander set not the main set.

Does it work? The modal myth cycle aren't colorless on the front and I don't think exiling from hand gives you the option if which side to play.

Kaldra is the only one of those that's colorless.

Edit: Actually I guess some of the prototype stuff is too. Their primary cost is colorless.

color=C (game:paper) cmc>=7 legal:modern

I thought like an artifact or land is colorless unless the card says "this card is x color". It doesn't come up very often outside of commander so I dunno.

That is probably because one side is colorless (the land) but not 7 cmc, and the other side is 7 cmc (the spell) bit not colorless. I don't think it would work.

your search was flawed - the land side is colorless and the front side is 7+ cmc, but it's not simultaneously true (and it only looks at the front, spell side in exile anyway)

They're not colourless when they're in your hand, only if you actually play them on the land side. So no, they don't work.

The prototypes do though.

Cloudpost in modern would be pretty funny, I guess it would just directly replace tron lands pretty much.

scryfall doesn't discern front side vs back side. sea gate restoration is the front and will match "cmc=7" searches but it also is colorless on the backside. matching "c:c"

you can also look in the JSON structure and see the front side is blue, back side has no colors

Lands are colorless (except dryad arbor). The problem is that Sea gate restoration is a colored card with cmc >=7. That's the properties it looks at when in your hand. It's only a colorless land with cmc <7 when you play the back side. It's never both simultaneously.

Also, incidentally, a card's color is usually determined by the colors in its casting cost. Artifacts are not inherently colorless by virtue of being artifacts. Though, the BRO cards you're talking about do work for Ugin's Labyrinth. Because they have no colors in their base casting cost.

My hot take is that cloudpost would probably be worse than tron in current modern and tron isn't even particularly great anymore, so it would be a safe unban.

Nexus is a commander card, but I agree if it were a Modern card tron still would be better.
