Land Tax is an absolute legend in MTG! If you're playing a deck that has white and you're often finding yourself mana-starved, this card can be a game-changer. It lets you pull out three basic lands from your deck if you have fewer lands than your opponent at the beginning of your upkeep. This not just ensures your land drops each turn but also thins your deck, increasing the chances of drawing into your spells and creatures. Plus, it's been around since the early days of MTG, proving its worth in various formats, especially in Commander where it's a staple for white decks.

Land Tax is overrated. Sure, it can help with mana consistency, but in fast-paced games or in decks where you're already managing your mana well, it can feel like a dead draw. It's more situational than people admit.

From personal experience, Land Tax has saved my bacon more times than I can count. Playing in a local tournament, I was consistently able to get the lands I needed while keeping my deck lean and mean. There's nothing like the feeling of pulling just the right lands early game and watching your opponent's face as you set up your board. It's not just good鈥攊t's essential for certain strategies.
