Umbral Expanse — ruling 1

Unlike some other dual lands, Umbral Expanse has two basic land types. It's not basic, so effects that search for basic lands can't find it, but it does have the appropriate land types for effects such as that of Shineshadow Snarl (included in the Secrets of Strixhaven Commander decks).
