They finally did it, we've got trilands with basic land types. Not sure how much impact they'll have in older formats since they always enter tapped, but definitely something I expect to see Standard and Commander play. Also, the fancy art versions are super pretty.

I knew they were coming given the leaks, but I'd much rather they completed the amonkhet cycling duals.
Interesting that these are very much location-specific.

I mean, they're big upgrades to the Khans lands (and the allied trilands, which annoys the hell out of me. Enemy colors shouldn't get better toys and I'm not even sure about equal), but they're still boring ETB tapped nonsense. Yes, they have land types, but I'd have trouble caring less.

These are very pushed.

Yeah, these have a lot of upside for three-color lands. Maybe too slow for Modern, but Standard cares a lot about basic land types right now, and Commander decks love these for both the cycling and the fetchibility.

Also, that showcase art is so wonderful.
