Rare · Instant — Lesson
2.0WeakRank 263 of 281
Not good filler and often gets cut (2.0/10).
Why. A five-mana instant that searches for up to four lands with different names. The opponent picks two for your graveyard and the rest enter tapped on the battlefield. It is ramp, nothing more.
Risks. It does nothing on the board and gives you only two lands. Five mana for fixing and ramp is too slow, and the opponent chooses the two you lose.
In the draft. Pass it in nearly every deck. Only play it if you have a specific reason to fetch several lands.

Win rate by colour pair
Percentage of games won by the decks of each pair that play the card, with the number of games. The pairs are the two main colors of the deck: when the card has a color outside the pair, the deck plays it as a splash (marked “splash”). A pair that has an archetype in this set leads to its guide.
