This manabase is likely too cute, but there are so many different lands in Standard that do functionally very similar things that I was keen to see how easy it would be to support Field of the Dead outside of a dedicated ramp deck
As this isn't a set I was on the design team for, I have fewer behind-the-scenes storiesso I thought I'd examine why we occasionally bend the color pie
Chaos Warp is one of the most played cards in EDH, and this is very similar but costs one more mana and offers you the option to copy it
Its relatively vulnerable to removal, so you might want to keep an extra blink spell handy just to save Brago
It's also a 1-drop with prowess, so it sees play in many formats including Explorer, Pioneer, and even Cube
