Rampant Growth
Sorcery
Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
Why Play Rampant Growth
Two-mana ramp spells form the backbone of green's acceleration strategy, allowing you to jump from two to four mana on turn three. Midrange and ramp decks rely on this effect to deploy expensive threats ahead of schedule, while multicolor decks use it for crucial mana fixing. The card shines when you need consistent land drops and can afford the tempo loss of spending turn two on setup rather than board development.Format Notes
Commander represents the format where Rampant Growth sees the most play, as the multiplayer environment rewards long-term mana development over immediate board presence. In competitive formats like Modern and Legacy, faster ramp options like Birds of Paradise or Utopia Sprawl typically take priority. Pauper decks occasionally include it in green-based midrange strategies where the common restriction makes it a premium ramp option.Combos & Synergies
Landfall creatures like Scute Swarm and Lotus Cobra create immediate value when Rampant Growth enters the battlefield, turning ramp into board presence or additional mana. The card pairs excellently with expensive payoffs such as Primeval Titan or other high-cost threats that justify the early investment. Mass land animation effects like Living Plane can transform your ramped basics into an army, though this synergy appears primarily in casual formats.Featured in These Decks
