Canopy Vista
Land — Forest Plains
Why Play Canopy Vista
Green-white decks benefit from this dual land's ability to fix mana while maintaining relevant land types for cards that care about Forests or Plains. The untapped condition is easily met in most constructed formats where basic lands form the foundation of your manabase, making it superior to always-enters-tapped alternatives. Budget-conscious players appreciate its low cost compared to fetchlands or shocklands while still providing consistent two-color fixing.Format Notes
Commander represents its strongest showing, where the slower pace accommodates the occasional tapped entry and the singleton nature makes dual lands particularly valuable. Pioneer and Modern see occasional play in budget builds or as supplementary fixing alongside premium lands. Historic inclusion provides solid mana fixing for Selesnya strategies without the hefty price tag of rarer alternatives, though competitive lists typically prioritize faster options.Combos & Synergies
Domain strategies value both land types on a single permanent, boosting cards like Tribal Flames and Coalition Victory. Knight of the Reliquary can sacrifice basics to fetch Canopy Vista, providing immediate colored mana while growing the Knight's power. Arbor Elf and other "untap Forest" effects work perfectly since this maintains the Forest type, essentially providing extra mana when combined with mana dorks that care about land types.Featured in These Decks
