How it works : Festering Thicket
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Unlike some other dual lands, Festering Thicket has two basic land types. It’s not basic, so effects that search for basic lands (such as the ability of a Lander token) can’t find it, but it does have the appropriate land types for effects such as that of Wastewood Verge (from the Aetherdrift release).
No other card is named in this ruling.
