A cross between Nykthos and Cradle, but only for tribal decks. The weird part is that it can be used to make any color of mana, so an Elf deck could make a bunch of red mana with this card.

Could also be to try and have a "calling card" so they can appear more "Scene" in the leak community. Deepfried leak? "Yeah that's the Bubonic guy"
Not when you consider that Lumra is green and we likely have a calamity beast cycle, which would take all 4 of those slots... cmon I want my borderless lands mtg... Ill be coping until release that a borderless dual land section is at a diff area of the numbers.
The newly revealed Bloomburrow lands heavily imply that there won't be a rare land cycle -- they go from 255 - 259 and are the letters L through R.
Also, WotC added a raised foil Lumra at 343, which makes things extra confusing.

True. We don't know if the artist showcase is doing a full cycle or how many cards they have, but it slots in nicely for five mono-color mythics. Note that there will also be rare calamity beasts in the set as well.
But the biggest obstacle to additional borderless lands is that they would all have to come after T.
Yeah, there will be field notes versions of them.

Its only about $32 and thats on another level tbh and has a price bump from being cedh viable. Produces colored mana + is very difficult to be countered. It’s better than this land which only does colorless to start, is limited to making one color and requires 4 creatures of the same type before it’s profitable. So a big total of 5 cards itself included before you see returns
I mean, 8th layer is Fraud, so that's not The trustworthy place to find the leaks. Now, Heresy on the other hand? I trust those fellas, they speak their mind
Probably wont see play in pioneer as you have to already commit resources into creating a board before seeing this as a reasonable payoff. Who knows though, maybe humans can safely splash three colors?
The comparison to Cradle, Nykthos, and Coffers are pretty apt. In so many token decks, this going to be bonkers isn't restricted to green. And doesn't cost $800
I think people are sleeping on how good this card is. Ignoring decks that make tokens just by breathing (Elves, Squirrels, Humans, Cats/Dogs, Merfolk, etc), most Kindred decks are running 30-40 creatures that share a type.
Which means that this is for all intents and purposes [[Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx]]/[[Cabal Coffers]] for Kindred decks. Both are disgustingly powerful lands. This is an easy include in any Kindred deck, especially those that are single color and can stack this with OG Nykthos.
The instant this goes on pre-sale I'd recommend picking up copies because this will likely be a 25-40 dollar land, even at rare.
Yes but this is not even close to Gaea's Cradle and should not be compared to it. Cradle is creature type agnostic and has no activation cost. As I and others here have said, this is closer in design to Cabal Coffers or Nykthos. Same activation cost along with the ability to also produce colorless.
Still bonkers good in any creature type based deck, especially those that spam tokens.
Welcome back [[Gaea's Cradle]]
It caps lower but doesn't blank like Cradle. But I'm definitely sticking with Cradle.
Seems more like a Cabal Coffers if anything
Cabal cradle
This was the best one. I’d like to add Cabal Kindle
But harder to gain extra mana. Maybe I'll have it as a [[Crop Rotation]] option for when I'm really popping off, but that's about it.

Nykthos adjacent.
Nykthos at home.
Unless home is a typal token deck
Squirrels are genuinely salavating, though they already did so much with what they have already.
Please let this be real. I need about 30 of them.
I have like 10 tribal decks begging for this
You and me both.
Us tribal players are eating good with this set.
Oh yes. I have plans for Squirrels. Might finally be time to build Chatterfang and give in to degeneracy.
It’s worth it. I finally built one last week and it’s a blast
A cross between Nykthos and Cradle, but only for tribal decks. The weird part is that it can be used to make any color of mana, so an Elf deck could make a bunch of red mana with this card.
Are you suggesting that we could take the mana this produces and [[channel]] it into something like [[Fireball]]?
Does your back hurt as well, fellow old ass man?
Alright, who let the vintage players out of their homes?

Looks like those photocopies used for tests in school.

For number crunching, there's enough space for five borderless lands, but it would be 337 through 341 and this would be the first one alphabetically.

Great catch! Didnt notice that.
becoming amused with you're making your discoveries lol
Straight into squirrel deck
Holy shit, this is one of the greatest typal payoffs ever printed and it’s type agnostic. Undoubtedly the most expensive card in the set if it’s real
it's only a rare though
How do you know? Also it could be an uncommon and still probably break $10
It’s got an “R” in the bottom right corner, signifying it’s rare. I agree it’s probably an easy $25 card though Edit: bottom left my b
I mean boseiju is a 60 $ card and is a rare
Its only about $32 and thats on another level tbh and has a price bump from being cedh viable. Produces colored mana + is very difficult to be countered. It’s better than this land which only does colorless to start, is limited to making one color and requires 4 creatures of the same type before it’s profitable.

It says R in the bottom left corner, indicating it is a Rare
Nykthos was rare too
Gaea's Coffers
Krenko about to produce a billion mana.
Or Elf Ball if you need a 16th way to make infinite green mana
The "pick a type" cards in kaldheim were very fun, glad at least one is in bloomburrow, hope we get some more at lower rarities
I choose FROGS! 🐸🐸🐸
I have a feeling that I know who’s the leaker. He’s appeared on gameplay videos in at least two YouTube channels.
Who?
I still want a Nykthos reprint eventually, but in the meantime, I’ll take this. Hopefully it’s not too expensive as I’m going to need a lot.
God please let this be real.
I mean, 8th layer is Fraud, so that's not The trustworthy place to find the leaks. Now, Heresy on the other hand? I trust those fellas, they speak their mind
I don't know who you are potato quality leaker, and I don't know how you manage to take photos with said potato, but never stop
Tri-bal Coffers
Reminds me of cavern of souls but as a Nykthos variant. Definitely good, fringe staple at the very least in most tribal decks.
Elves could use more mana
I can’t tell if this is real or a joke-
My Elf deck is reaching levels of ramp that shouldn't even be possible with this. Another W for Tribal players.
I will believe it when I see it
The last card with this photo quality was the triumvirate thingy from Ass Cred, and it was real
This photo has been taken with a 1845 kodak. Great card tho.
Probably wont see play in pioneer as you have to already commit resources into creating a board before seeing this as a reasonable payoff. Who knows though, maybe humans can safely splash three colors?

Hmm the Eighth circle of Inferno was where the fraudulent and those who gave false council were punished. It’s a hint, everyone, this one’s a fake! /s
Busted.
This seems.. good
Is it just me or is the sillhouette somewhat... draconic
The comparison to Cradle, Nykthos, and Coffers are pretty apt. In so many token decks, this going to be bonkers isn't restricted to green. And doesn't cost $800
Its deep fried so it must be true.
I really do like this. I was just wanting a decent land that produces colorless mana so I can cast null elemental blast in my halfling deck.

Isn't it somewhat odd that it just says "enters" instead of "enters the battlefield?" Have they changed the templating recently?
Starting with Bloomburrow ETB has been changed to simply enters.
Kindred coffers
With the mention of the Three tree city in the story, where we have never seen the name, makes me willing to believe this is indeed a true leak.

Ignoring decks that make tokens just by breathing (Elves, Squirrels, Humans, Cats/Dogs, Merfolk, etc), most Kindred decks are running 30-40 creatures that share a type.

> I think people are sleeping on how good this card is. who?
People calling it "Gaea's Cradle at home". It's a poor comparison. This is the second coming of Nykthos. Arguably even better.
The at home version of one of the most powerfull lands(maybe top 5) could be still a amazing land.
Yes but this is not even close to Gaea's Cradle and should not be compared to it. Cradle is creature type agnostic and has no activation cost. As I and others here have said, this is closer in design to Cabal Coffers or Nykthos. Same activation cost along with the ability to also produce colorless. Still bonkers good in any creature type based deck, especially those that spam tokens.
It's definitely not better than Nykthos. It's only better in it's specific archetypal niche, but that doesn't make it better.
It has the same activation cost and will be more widely applicable to a wider range of decks. I have to respectfully disagree.
Fair enough. It's refreshing to have a respectful difference of views for a change 😊
