 On this plane the time and space are in a state of flux and spilling over into parallel universes. Shifted lands are places where this is the worst. Beings on this plane evolved under these parameters and can use them to their advantage. Mages can use mana from these shifted lands to make their abilities more powerful. (for example: Take control of target creature until end of turn would not be until end of turn anymore.) |

melono : Shouldn't the counter be removed before sacrificing? I'm not officially back yet, but have a thing. It'll also show what's wrong with the text boxEDIT: Daij_Djan found the proper fonts to fix the problem. I expect he'll be linking to the solution on the Mainpage shortly:  Monarch GroveLand--Forest  ( : Add  .) {Proper italicizing added. --ed.}Monarch Grove enters the battlefield tapped.  , , Sacrifice Monarch Grove: Create X 0/1 green Insect creature tokens with flying named Butterfly. Activate this ability only as a sorcery. From monarchs' overwintering in Mexico.

melono : Shouldn't the counter be removed before sacrificing? I thought it wouldn't really matter as a cost happens all at once, but it would make it clearer. Imma edit it. Thanks for the suggestion  |

No render yet since I'm currently lying in bed with a cold (and yeah, it's just a cold  ). With Carnival Carnivore soon to be legal in Vintage, Alien will soon be an official black-bordered creature type as well. So how about this: Area 51Land : Add  .  , : Add for each Alien you control. "Boring location, but nice room service."

 Reference: Sedona vortexNote: This works very favorably with Sunburst and Converge, but I think that's OK for this one-of gimmick. Note 2: It triggers on itself entering the battlefield, so it will enter with a vortex counter on it. |

![]()  Inspired by the weapons and mummified bodies found in the bogs here in Scandinavia. It is theorized that some of them might have been sacrifices for the gods.
Ritual BogLand Ritual Bog enters the battlefield tapped. : Add  . ,  : Sacrifice a creature or an artifact. Target creature you control gets +3/+3 until end of turn. Activate only when you could cast a sorcery. "Weapons we give you, Odin. A warrior we grand you, Tyr. We beg of you; grant us victory!" |
