==Typecycling==
*Unlike the normal cycling ability, basic landcycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a basic land card. You don't choose the type of basic land card you'll find until you're performing the search. After you choose a basic land card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.
A variant of the ability, '''typecycling''', allows the player to search his or her library for a card of a given [[subtype]] instead of drawing the top card of their library. The first cards with this ability appeared in ''[[Scourge]]'' and allowed a player to search for a [[land]] card with a specific land type. ''[[Future Sight]]'' then expanded the ability to search for cards with a specific creature type.  
*Basic landcycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on a card being basic landcycled. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being played also stops a basic landcycling ability from being played.
*Basic landcycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as <c>Stifle</c> or <c>Rings of Brighthearth</c>) will interact with basic landcycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.
*You can choose not to find a basic land card, even if there is one in your library.

Cycling is a keyword ability that allows a player to pay a cost that includes discarding the card. When the activated ability resolves, that player draws a card.

Description

Cycling was created by Richard Garfield during Tempest design (although not premiering in print until Urza's Saga).[2]

Cycling has been perennially popular and has been featured in more blocks than any other non-evergreen keyword, appearing in the Urza's,[3] Onslaught, Time Spiral, and Alara blocks, the last of which introduced cards with hybrid cycling costs. It once again returned in Amonkhet block,[4] where it focused in blue and black and rewarded cycling cards that were put into the graveyard.[5][6] In Modern Horizons[7] , on the other hand, cycling appeared in all colors, with a slight lean to blue and red for the "draw-two" archetype. The mechanic returned yet again in Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths, this time featured primarily in red and white.[8][9] Ikoria notably had the most aggressive cycling costs with many spells costing {1} to cycle.

From its constant returns, to "cycle" a card has become common parlance to describe single drawing effects regardless of whether the effect is a discard ability, spell effect, or battlefield-based ability.

The Time Spiral futureshifted card Edge of Autumn and Street Wraith introduced non-mana cycling costs, but Mark Rosewater considers them too strong for a reprint.[10] Since Onslaught block, some cards have additional bonuses for cycling them. These are written "When you cycle [this card's name], [effect]."

Although cycling had been used repeatedly, it was not considered to be deciduous until Streets of New Capenna.[11][12] March of the Machine was the next appearance, with a cycle of land cyclers and two Ikoria-set cards having cycling as a callback.

R&D have experimented with cycling costs, but never {0}.[13]

Rules

From the glossary of the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)

Cycling
A keyword ability that lets a card be discarded and replaced with a new card. See rule 702.29, “Cycling.”

From the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)

  • 702.29. Cycling
    • 702.29a Cycling is an activated ability that functions only while the card with cycling is in a player’s hand. “Cycling [cost]” means “[Cost], Discard this card: Draw a card.”
    • 702.29b Although the cycling ability can be activated only if the card is in a player’s hand, it continues to exist while the object is on the battlefield and in all other zones. Therefore objects with cycling will be affected by effects that depend on objects having one or more activated abilities.
    • 702.29c Some cards with cycling have abilities that trigger when they’re cycled. “When you cycle [this card]” means “When you discard [this card] to pay an activation cost of a cycling ability.” These abilities trigger from whatever zone the card winds up in after it’s cycled.
    • 702.29d Some cards have abilities that trigger whenever a player “cycles or discards” a card. These abilities trigger only once when a card is cycled.
    • 702.29e Typecycling is a variant of the cycling ability. “[Type]cycling [cost]” means “[Cost], Discard this card: Search your library for a [type] card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library.” This type is usually a subtype (as in “mountaincycling”) but can be any card type, subtype, supertype, or combination thereof (as in “basic landcycling”).
    • 702.29f Typecycling abilities are cycling abilities, and typecycling costs are cycling costs. Any cards that trigger when a player cycles a card will trigger when a card is discarded to pay an activation cost of a typecycling ability. Any effect that stops players from cycling cards will stop players from activating cards’ typecycling abilities. Any effect that increases or reduces a cycling cost will increase or reduce a typecycling cost. Any effect that looks for a card with cycling will find a card with typecycling.

Typecycling

A variant of the ability, typecycling, allows the player to search their library for a card of a certain subtype instead of drawing the top card of their library.[14] The first cards with this ability appeared in Scourge and allowed a player to search for a land card with a specific land type. Future Sight then expanded the ability to search for cards with a specific creature type, but appears on only two cards: Vedalken Aethermage (wizard) and Homing Sliver (sliver).[15][16]

Alara Reborn introduced the first cards with two landcycling abilities. Modern Horizons 2 brings another tweak of the landcycling mechanic with artifact landcycling (Sojourner's Companion).

From the glossary of the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)

Typecycling
A variant of the cycling ability. See rule 702.29, “Cycling.”

As R&D has soured on tutoring mechanics (as it leads to repetitive gameplay and slows games through shuffling), the return of typecycling in premier sets is dubious.[17] Landcycling was granted a return in March of the Machine with a cycle of commons.

In Modern Horizons 2, a second card with Wizardcycling was printed: Step Through.

Basic Landcycling

Basic landcycling was introduced in Conflux.[18] Despite how cycling has returned in other sets, basic landcycling initially only returned in supplementary products (Commander 2016, Modern Horizons 2, Doctor Who). For Murders at Karlov Manor, Basic landcycling returned and was elevated to deciduous.[19]

From the glossary of the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)

Basic Landcycling
See Typecycling.
  • Unlike the normal cycling ability, basic landcycling doesn't allow you to draw a card. Instead, it lets you search your library for a basic land card. You don't choose the type of basic land card you'll find until you're performing the search. After you choose a basic land card in your library, you reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.
  • Basic landcycling is a form of cycling. Any ability that triggers on a card being cycled also triggers on a card being basic landcycled. Any ability that stops a cycling ability from being played also stops a basic landcycling ability from being played.
  • Basic landcycling is an activated ability. Effects that interact with activated abilities (such as Stifle or Rings of Brighthearth) will interact with basic landcycling. Effects that interact with spells (such as Remove Soul or Faerie Tauntings) will not.
  • You can choose not to find a basic land card, even if there is one in your library.

Example 3

Ash Barrens

Example 4

Vedalken Aethermage {1}{U}
Creature — Vedalken Wizard
Flash (You may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant.)
When Vedalken Aethermage enters the battlefield, return target Sliver to its owner's hand.
Wizardcycling {3} ({3}, Discard this card: Search your library for a Wizard card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle your library.)

"Cycling from the battlefield"

"Cycling from the battlefield" or "Cycling from play" is an effect that appeared on eight permanents in Urza's Destiny. Each contained the rules text, "{2}, Sacrifice this permanent: Draw a card." This mechanic was designed by Mark Rosewater, who considers it a variation of cycling.[20] This was not well-noticed by players at the time, and given that the cost to cast and cycle the card it did not act as a good smoothing mechanic. Later mechanics like Clues and Filter artifacts would cycle from play in a similar fashion.
