Mind Roots
Oracle Text
Target player discards two cards. Put up to one land card discarded this way onto the battlefield tapped under your control.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Mind Roots is a clean Golgari-flavored value spell that turns discard into board development, making it especially attractive for midrange and attrition-based control shells. At three mana, it is not a pure tempo blowout, but it can still swing a game by stripping two cards from the opponent while potentially ramping you with a land that was just knocked loose. That combination is strongest when you can pressure resources over multiple turns, then convert the extra land into a faster follow-up threat or a held-up interaction turn. It also has clear synergy with cards that force random discard, punish empty hands, or benefit from lands entering tapped as a minor cost. In deckbuilding, pair it with recursive threats or graveyard-friendly strategies so discarded lands and spells are not wasted. The “roots” theme fits the card’s function well: it burrows into the opponent’s hand while planting your own advantage deeper into the game.
