Abundance

If you would draw a card, you may instead choose land or nonland and reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a card of the chosen kind. Put that card into your hand and put all other cards revealed this way on the bottom of your library in any order.

If no card of the chosen type is found before your library empties, you don't get a card, but you do get to order all the cards in your library any way you choose.

If you use this on a multi-card draw, each replaced draw is handled separately. In other words, you reveal and then put on the bottom of the library for the first card, then do the same for the second, and so on. In a multi-card draw you do not have to choose how many of those draws will be replaced before you do any drawing or use of this card.

This replacement effect replaces the draw, so nothing that triggers on a draw will trigger.

If your library is empty, Abundance can prevent you from losing the game for being unable to draw a card. If an effect or turn-based action would cause you to draw a card, you can replace that draw with Abundance's replacement effect. (It doesn't matter that you'd be unable to actually draw a card.) Since Abundance's effect has you put a card into your hand instead of drawing a card, you'll never be forced to draw a card with an empty library.

Ambition's Cost

You draw three cards and you lose 3 life.

Fast and lethal, with a penchant for the weak and infirm.

Bala Ged Scorpion

When Bala Ged Scorpion enters the battlefield, you may destroy target creature with power 1 or less.

The power of the targeted creature is checked both as you target it and as the ability resolves.

"Avoid anything that scuttles, scrabbles, or shambles."
—Opar, veteran guide

Blistergrub

Swampwalk (This creature can't be blocked as long as defending player controls a Swamp.)
When Blistergrub dies, each opponent loses 2 life.

Briarhorn

Flash (You may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant.)
When Briarhorn enters the battlefield, target creature gets +3/+3 until end of turn.
Evoke {1}{G} (You may cast this spell for its evoke cost. If you do, it's sacrificed when it enters the battlefield.)

If you cast this card for its evoke cost, you may put the sacrifice trigger and the regular enters-the-battlefield trigger on the stack in either order. The one put on the stack last will resolve first.

"Later we will mourn those we have lost. First we must end their suffering."
—Drana, Kalastria bloodchief

Carrier Thrall

When Carrier Thrall dies, put a 1/1 colorless Eldrazi Scion creature token onto the battlefield. It has "Sacrifice this creature: Add {C} to your mana pool."

Eldrazi Scions are similar to Eldrazi Spawn, seen in the Zendikar block. Note that Eldrazi Scions are 1/1, not 0/1.

Eldrazi and Scion are each separate creature types. Anything that affects Eldrazi will affect these tokens, for example.

Sacrificing an Eldrazi Scion creature token to add {C} to your mana pool is a mana ability. It doesn’t use the stack and can’t be responded to.

Some instants and sorceries that create Eldrazi Scions require targets. If all targets for such a spell have become illegal by the time that spell tries to resolve, the spell won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won’t get any Eldrazi Scions.

When Carrier Thrall dies, create a 1/1 colorless Eldrazi Scion creature token. It has "Sacrifice this creature: Add {C}."

They seek out living trees to glean age-old secrets from sap and wood.

Zendikar's elves have developed innovative methods to mitigate the effects of the Roil.

Crop Rotation

As an additional cost to cast Crop Rotation, sacrifice a land.
Search your library for a land card and put that card onto the battlefield. Then shuffle your library.

You can’t cast Crop Rotation without sacrificing a land, and you can’t sacrifice additional lands.

"Take what solace you can in the knowledge that you will not be here to witness Zendikar's demise."
—Ob Nixilis

Demon's Grasp

Target creature gets -5/-5 until end of turn.

Desecration Demon

Flying
At the beginning of each combat, any opponent may sacrifice a creature. If a player does, tap Desecration Demon and put a +1/+1 counter on it.

Each opponent in turn order may choose to sacrifice a creature, even if an opponent already chose to sacrifice a creature that combat. Desecration Demon will have a maximum of one +1/+1 counter put on it each combat, no matter how many creatures were sacrificed.

Players won’t know which player or planeswalker Desecration Demon will attack, if any, when deciding whether to sacrifice a creature.

Despoiler of Souls

Despoiler of Souls can't block.
{B}{B}, Exile two other creature cards from your graveyard: Return Despoiler of Souls from your graveyard to the battlefield.

"Brave scar or unfortunate tale? It all depends on your pain threshold."

Elvish Visionary

When Elvish Visionary enters the battlefield, draw a card.

Fertile Thicket

Fertile Thicket enters the battlefield tapped.
When Fertile Thicket enters the battlefield, you may look at the top five cards of your library. If you do, reveal up to one basic land card from among them, then put that card on top of your library and the rest on the bottom in any order.
{T}: Add {G} to your mana pool.

You don’t have to reveal a basic land card from among the five cards you look at, even if one is there. If you don’t, you won’t put a card on top of your library.

Fertilid

Fertilid enters the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters on it.
{1}{G}, Remove a +1/+1 counter from Fertilid: Target player searches his or her library for a basic land card and puts it onto the battlefield tapped. Then that player shuffles his or her library.

Although the targeted player doesn't need to find a basic land card if they don't want to, that player must shuffle their library.

Fetid Imp

Flying
{B}: Fetid Imp gains deathtouch until end of turn. (Any amount of damage it deals to a creature is enough to destroy it.)

Forest

The imp, unaware of its own odor, paused to catch its breath . . . and promptly died.

Foul Imp

Flying
When Foul Imp enters the battlefield, you lose 2 life.

You can cast this if you have less than 2 life, since the life is lost as an effect and not a payment.

Gaea's Blessing

Target player shuffles up to three target cards from his or her graveyard into his or her library.
Draw a card.
When Gaea's Blessing is put into your graveyard from your library, shuffle your graveyard into your library.

If Gaea’s Blessing has no legal target cards in a graveyard, either because its targets became illegal or because you didn’t choose any, the target player shuffles their library.

If an effect puts multiple cards from your library into your graveyard at once, put all of those cards there before Gaea’s Blessing shuffles your graveyard into your library.

Target player shuffles up to three target cards from their graveyard into their library.
Draw a card.
When Gaea's Blessing is put into your graveyard from your library, shuffle your graveyard into your library.

Its sting hurts, but death is strangely painless.

Giant Scorpion

Few among the living understand just how much of their world is shaped by the ruins of the dead.

"A little dark magic won't stop me. The worse the curse, the better the prize."
—Radavi, Joraga relic hunter, last words

Hideous End

Destroy target nonblack creature. Its controller loses 2 life.

If the targeted creature is an illegal target by the time Hideous End resolves, the entire spell doesn’t resolve. No one loses life.

The promise of anguish is payment enough for services rendered.

Indulgent Tormentor

Flying
At the beginning of your upkeep, draw a card unless target opponent sacrifices a creature or pays 3 life.

If there are no legal targets to choose, perhaps because all your opponents have hexproof, the ability is removed from the stack with no effect. You won’t draw a card. This is also true if the target opponent becomes an illegal target in response to the ability.

The opponent chooses whether they sacrifice a creature, pays 3 life, or allows you to draw a card. That player can’t make an impossible choice, such as sacrificing a creature while they control no creatures.

Zombies mourn for the living and celebrate those who will soon be given the gift of death.

Innocent Blood

You can cast Innocent Blood even if some (or all) players control no creatures. Those players are simply unaffected.

Nature's arms encircle all who are willing to draw close.

Jaddi Lifestrider

When Jaddi Lifestrider enters the battlefield, you may tap any number of untapped creatures you control. You gain 2 life for each creature tapped this way.

You don’t choose which creatures to tap until the ability resolves. You may tap Jaddi Lifestrider itself this way, assuming it’s still on the battlefield untapped by this time.

Khalni Garden

Khalni Garden enters the battlefield tapped.
When Khalni Garden enters the battlefield, put a 0/1 green Plant creature token onto the battlefield.

As the bridge snapped, Berko was sure he heard the swamp laughing at him.

Mire's Toll

Target player reveals a number of cards from his or her hand equal to the number of Swamps you control. You choose one of them. That player discards that card.

If the number of Swamps you control exceeds the number of cards in the targeted player’s hand, that player reveals all the cards in their hand.

Mosswort Bridge

Hideaway (This land enters the battlefield tapped. When it does, look at the top four cards of your library, exile one face down, then put the rest on the bottom of your library.)
{T}: Add {G} to your mana pool.
{G}, {T}: You may play the exiled card without paying its mana cost if creatures you control have total power 10 or greater.

 Any player who has controlled a permanent with a hideaway ability since a card was exiled with it may look at that card.

"Hideaway N" means "When this permanent enters the battlefield, look at the top N cards of your library. Exile one of them face down and put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. The exiled card gains 'The player who controls the permanent that exiled this card may look at this card in the exile zone.'"

Hideaway now causes you to put the rest of the cards on the bottom of your library in a random order instead of any order.

Previously, permanents with hideaway entered the battlefield tapped. This ability has been removed from the definition of hideaway. Older cards have received errata to have an additional paragraph that reads "[This permanent] enters the battlefield tapped," and they now have hideaway 4.

Hideaway 4 (When this land enters the battlefield, look at the top four cards of your library, exile one face down, then put the rest on the bottom in a random order.)

[+1]: You draw a card and you lose 1 life.
[−3]: Destroy target creature.
[−8]: Target opponent gets an emblem with "Whenever a player draws a card, you lose 2 life."

Oran-Rief Hydra

Trample
Landfall — Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on Oran-Rief Hydra. If that land is a Forest, put two +1/+1 counters on Oran-Rief Hydra instead.

A landfall ability triggers whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control for any reason. It triggers whenever you play a land, as well as whenever a spell or ability puts a land onto the battlefield under your control.

If the ability has an additional or replacement effect that depends on the land having a certain basic land type, the ability will check that land’s type as the ability resolves. If, at that time, the land that entered the battlefield is no longer on the battlefield, use its types when it left the battlefield to determine what happens.

When a land enters the battlefield under your control, each landfall ability of the permanents you control will trigger. You can put them on the stack in any order. The last ability you put on the stack will be the first one to resolve.

—Raff Slugeater, goblin shortcutter

Saddleback Lagac

When Saddleback Lagac enters the battlefield, support 2. (Put a +1/+1 counter on each of up to two other target creatures.)

If a spell with support has other abilities that target creatures, those abilities and the support ability can target the same creature.

Support can target a creature you don’t control.

You can’t put more than one +1/+1 counter on any one target using the support action.

Eldrazi are not the leopard's preferred prey, but they are better than no prey at all.

{4}{B}: Each opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. Activate this ability only if there are four or more creature cards in your graveyard.

Once you legally activate the last ability, it doesn’t matter how many creature cards are in your graveyard as it resolves.

{4}{B}: Each opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. Activate only if there are four or more creature cards in your graveyard.

Take away a few things, and a rebellion may ensue. Take away everything, and the oppression will be accepted as fate.

Smallpox

Each player loses 1 life, discards a card, sacrifices a creature, then sacrifices a land.

Any abilities of the lands sacrificed may modify or trigger on the creatures being sacrificed and on the cards being discarded. Abilities of the creatures won't modify or trigger on the lands being sacrificed, but may modify or trigger on the cards being discarded.

Any abilities that trigger while Smallpox is resolving will wait to be put onto the stack until Smallpox is done resolving.

As Smallpox resolves, first each player loses 1 life at the same time. Next, each player chooses a card in hand without revealing it, then all of the cards are discarded at the same time. Then starting with the player whose turn it is and proceeding in turn order, each player chooses a creature, knowing the choices made before them. All of the creatures are sacrificed at the same time, then finally repeat this process for lands.

Setting foot in their muck is an open invitation.

Squelching Leeches

Squelching Leeches's power and toughness are each equal to the number of Swamps you control.

Squelching Leeches's power and toughness will change as the number of Swamps you control changes. Its ability counts all lands you control with the subtype Swamp, not just those named Swamp.

The ability that defines Squelching Leeches's power and toughness works in all zones, not just the battlefield.

Swamp

Darkness doesn't always send its minions to do its dirty work.

Tendrils of Corruption

Tendrils of Corruption deals X damage to target creature and you gain X life, where X is the number of Swamps you control.

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Tendrils of Corruption tries to resolve, the spell doesn't resolve. You don't gain X life.

Thicket Elemental

Kicker {1}{G} (You may pay an additional {1}{G} as you cast this spell.)
When Thicket Elemental enters the battlefield, if it was kicked, you may reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a creature card. If you do, put that card onto the battlefield and shuffle all other cards revealed this way into your library.
