Revised Edition (Magic: The Gathering) - Notable Cards

Notable Cards

  • The Dual Lands: Tundra, Underground Sea, Badlands, Taiga, Savannah, Scrubland, Bayou, Tropical Island, Volcanic Island and Plateau. These lands provide two colors of mana with the benefit of possessing two basic land types, an uncommon trait on non-basic lands. All future dual lands would be printed with restrictions. They are now a defining part of the Legacy and Vintage formats, due in particular to their ability to be searched for by the various Fetchlands released many years later. While many cards were removed from Revised for power reasons, the original dual lands were retained.
  • Demonic Tutor — The original and most powerful "tutor" card ever printed. This card is restricted in Vintage and banned in Legacy. All future tutors were printed with restrictions or made more expensive like Odyssey's Diabolic Tutor.
  • Sol Ring — While all of the zero-casting cost mana artifacts were removed from Revised, Sol Ring remained. Its mana acceleration has caused it to be restricted in Vintage and banned in Legacy.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or cards:

    Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Men disappoint me so, I disappoint myself so, yet courage, patience, shuffle the cards ...
    Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)
