Urzas Saga – MTG Deck Builder

The fact is the Urza block is horrifically broken but it doesn’t mean that there aren’t some cards that should be in your UrzaTron deck. Enter the “UrzaTron” lands.

Ancestral Recall, Banned for Good Reason

Ancestral Recall is a blue instant, originally designed to be a common, but Richard Garfield was persuaded to make it a rare instead.
