Commander Quest — Lands
With the explosive popularity of Zendikar Rising’s modal double-faces cards (MDFCs), landfall decks are getting a big boost. Solid performers like Flagstones of Trokair and Undiscovered Paradise see a sharp uptick in play and price, but are there any dark horse cards that can benefit from the landfall synergies Zendikar Rising brings to Commander without putting a hurt on your wallet?
Riftstone Portal
Obviously green wants as many lands and landfall synergies as it can get, but white hasn’t necessarily been the most obvious partner color for lands decks in Commander. However, powerful cards from Zendikar Rising like Felidar Retreat are making big waves in Selesnya (Yasharn), Naya (Obunn), and even Four-Color (Omnath) decks in the format. Riftstone Portal offers advantages of its own with a much smaller price tag than something like Flagstones.
And just like how you want to get Flagstones into the graveyard to reap its full benefits, there are plenty of staple ramp cards in green/white color that both put lands into your graveyard or want them there — Harrow, Crop Rotation, Elvish Reclaimer, and Knight of the Reliquary to name a few.
