Mana Confluence

Ravnica Artwork Request

For my Ravnica-illustrations-only Cube I would really like some other lands than just shocklands. Mana Confluence in Commander Legends is a nice addition. Please make more and maybe even full land cycles available with Ravnica artworks!

That is a bold and narrow ask. : )

Black Effect Shift

What’s this about life loss going away? Was something announced? Does that mean that City of Brass becomes more likely than Mana Confluence going forward?

Life loss isn’t going away. We’re using it less as an effect in black opting to use damage.

Colorless mana sources

Can cards sigh as City of Brass or Mana Confluence tap for colorless mana?

Not if they say “any color”. Colorless is not a color.

Mana Confluence Placement

What were the factors to having Mana Confluence be put into Theros instead of Khans? Being a multicolor set you think Confluence would have been a great fit. Did Theros standard need the land that bad? Too many rare lands with the fetches?

It’s also important to spread out the mana fixing in Standard.

Mana Confluence vs City

I like that Mana confluence is just flat out better than city of brass, not intentionally weaker like tarnished citadel tried to be. Being on the opposite side of the table as an Icy Manipulator (remember how people used to talk about how broken THAT was?) was as frustrating as seeing furnace of rath. Mana confluence protects you from both! And at a much nicer cost...

It’s not strictly better. You can prevent the damage from City of Brass.

Mana Confluence FYI

To people asking about Mana Confluence: Because City of Brass' ability is phrased as a trigger that deals damage, it creates a trigger every time it's tapped for mana. This trigger causes priority to be passed around between players. On Magic Online, this is actually quite annoying and time consuming.

City of Brass Reprint

Why make a functional reprint of City of Brass aka Mana Confluence?

It’s not quite functionally identical.
