Unlike Evolving Wilds and other variants though, Ash Barrens can be played and tapped for mana immediately, so it's not as slow as some of the alternatives
Back when I played (16+ years ago) the minimum deck size was 35, and I typically used decks of around 40.GalacticCowboy GalacticCowboy2010-10-20 13:10:20 +00:00Commented Oct 20, 2010 at 13:10 2@GalacticCowboy Yes, official play is up to 60 now, but many of the "starter decks" only have 40 cards.C
This card is great with artifacts like Winter Orb and Static Orb because you can tap them on the end step before your turn so you arent affected while your opponents cant play the game
Great for birthdays, holidays, conventions, or local game nights
Into the West Though part of me is a little disappointed that my lifes work making this EDH deck has been for nought, I am quietly excited for the prospect of Lord of the Rings -themed cards
