Cheap Bling: The Best Non-Promo Basic Lands in Magic


Basic lands are one of my favorites parts of Magic. They have some of the most spectacular art in the entire game, and since pretty much all sets have multiple versions of each basic land, there is a ton of art to choose from. If you're looking to bling out your decks but without breaking the bank, updating your basic lands is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to go about it. Over the years, I've gotten a ton of questions about the basic lands I use in various gameplay videos, and I've spent hours digging through basic lands, trying to find the most unique and spectacular art to spice up my decks. As such, today, I'm going to share with all of you my favorite non-promo basic land art in all of Magic, with five basic land choices for each color. If you're looking to turn heads at your local game store or your weekly Commander game, these lands should get the job done, and most of them are super cheap! Anyway, here are—in my opinion—the best non-promo basic lands in Magic! Oh yeah, do you have a favorite basic land? Make sure to let me know in the comments!

Single Scoop: Aerith Joins Soul Sisters

Soul Sisters is a beloved archetype by many and thanks to Aerith, this deck is loaded with Ajani's Pridemate effects. Hopefully, she can outlast Standard better than she did with Sephiroth.
