Great Wall stops all kinds of plainswalk including snow-covered planeswalk.

Walls as Non-creatures

New 21 Jan 2022 Asked by evilwill2112 32 Comments

As I understand it, You believe Walls should be Walls not creatures.With the way the mechanics are set in the game, would this require a separate destroy/control mechanic? Or should it be recognized they're either any artifact or a construct?I agree they're not rightly classed as a creature, after all, "Wall of Stone" would be depending on the flavor could be seen Artifact (Great Wall of China or Hadrian's Wall) Creature (Wall of Flesh).But classifying them all as a creature seemed a bit over simplifying


You were misunderstanding me. Creatures with defender would get different flavor. We might make the occasional artifact with the flavor of a wall that says something like “All attacking creatures get -1/-0.”

I mean the Great wall of China is a legendary Wall in the real world why couldn't a plane have a legendary wall in it's universe?


The issue has never been could we flavor a legendary wall? Obviously we can. There are legendary walls.

Legendary Wall Speculation

New 18 Jul 2018 Asked by l2eno 40 Comments

Hey Mark, why dont we have a legendary wall yet? If the real world can have legendary walls like the great wall of China, so should Magic. (Also i want it for Arcades EDH, please let it happen)


It’s a box I’m sure we’ll check eventually.

Legendary Wall Possibility

New 26 Mar 2018 Asked by rafe62 60 Comments

Mark, is a legendary wall akin to the Great Wall of China likely? I, along with a few others, were hoping that’s what one of Hanweir’s parts would have been.


It’s a common request, so maybe. : )

Legendary Wall Query

New 05 Jul 2017 Asked by b4da1r 40 Comments

Why is a legendary wall not likely? Great Wall of China, Hadrian's Wall - plenty of real precedent


Wall already doesn’t make sense as a creature. Making it legendary is just pushing into odd creative space.

Legendary Wall Concept

“The Great Wall of China.” : )

Which would you rather see in a core set: Wall of Stone or Great Wall?


Wall of Stone easily wins that match-up.

Promotional Land Art

New 08 Mar 2012 Asked by sarroth 2 Comments

Is there any chance we might see more promotional lands with art from real-world places, such as maybe Liberty Island or Mount Rushmore?


This gimmick was done many years ago with lands from around the world for a series of lands known as Guru lands (I believe, I might be remembering the wrong program). This cycle does have lands showing things like Mount Fuji and the Great Wall of China.
