The slow lands are a cycle of rare taplands, introduced in Innistrad: Midnight Hunt and completed in Innistrad: Crimson Vow.[1]

Description

These lands produce two colors of mana and enter the battlefield tapped unless you control two or more other lands. They are a mirror of the fast lands of Scars of Mirrodin which enter the battlefield tapped unless you control two or fewer other lands. Due to this, the expected nickname for them was "slowlands".
