{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
Predicted power
Standard Eng.NLUsr.
Pioneer Eng.NLUsr.
Modern 22 Eng.FUsr.

Three mana over two turns for a tapped basic is far too slow for most Modern decks; artifact utility offers only a narrow testing case.

Best home Artifact-based ramp shellsBand speculativeConfidence 76%

Could be wrong if A newly viable artifact-sacrifice or landfall shell could make its cheap artifact body more valuable.

Legacy 17 Eng.FUsr.

Legacy's mana engines vastly outpace a three-mana delayed basic land; unlike Lotus Petal, it provides no immediate mana.

Band speculativeConfidence 79%

Could be wrong if A specialized artifact recursion engine could value the sacrifice, though the rate remains poor.

Pauper 34 Eng.D-Usr.

It can fix and leave an artifact in graveyard, but three mana for a tapped basic is weaker than Pauper's established artifact value cards like Ichor Wellspring.

Best home Jund WildfireBand speculativeConfidence 69%

Could be wrong if A slow multicolor or landfall strategy may want the fixing and sacrifice trigger more than expected.

Commander 52 Eng.CUsr.

Reliable colorless basic ramp and a sacrifice artifact make it a solid singleton inclusion, but it is slower and narrower than Cultivate-level ramp.

Best home Non-green artifact-sacrifice decksBand role-playerConfidence 83%

Could be wrong if Optimized lists may favor faster mana or colored ramp, sharply limiting adoption outside synergy decks.

Limited 36 Eng.DUsr.

It fixes and eventually ramps, but spending three mana and a card for a tapped basic is below-rate unless fixing is scarce or synergies reward it.

Best home Multicolor slow decksBand fillerConfidence 42%

Could be wrong if Unknown fixing, format speed, and artifact-sacrifice payoffs could move it from sideboard filler to a regular inclusion.

basic-land ramp fixer

“A slow but reliable colorless basic-land fixer, with niche artifact and landfall utility but little appeal in fast eternal Constructed.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
