Carte Magic Wastes

Wastes is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.

01

Official card text

{T}: Add {C}.

How it works : Wastes

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    In Limited events (including Sealed Deck and Booster Draft), Wastes must be in your card pool to be included in your deck. You can't add Wastes to your card pool in the same way that you can add other basic lands.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Because Wastes is a basic land, you can include as many of them as you like in your Constructed decks.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Wastes is not a land type. If something asks you to name a land type, you can't choose Wastes.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
