Oracle Text

You may sacrifice a nontoken green creature rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
Search your library for up to two basic land cards, reveal those cards, put one onto the battlefield tapped and the other into your hand, then shuffle.

Character Background

Flare of Cultivation is a quintessential value ramp spell, best suited to midrange and combo decks that can convert one creature into a burst of mana development. The alternate cost is the real hook: sacrificing a nontoken green creature lets you bypass the {1}{G}{G} entirely, turning a spent mana dork, utility creature, or creature about to die anyway into a tidy two-land upgrade. Because one basic goes straight to the battlefield tapped and the other to hand, it smooths future land drops while also increasing your raw resource count, making it excellent in grindy games where you want to stay ahead on mana without fully committing to explosive, fragile acceleration. Deckbuilding-wise, it pairs well with creatures that like being sacrificed or recur from the graveyard, such as value creatures with enter-the-battlefield effects or green shells that can rebuild easily. In Modern Horizons 3, it reads like a measured burst of growth rather than a flashy ritual, ideal for players who want tempo now and inevitability later.
