Legendary land

Legendary lands were first introduced in Legends. Despite the drawback many of them were banned from various formats.

Legendary land cycles

Legends

The first cycle of legendary utility lands is from Legends. Each land produces mana of the associated color, and has an activated ability which can be activated by tapping.

• Tolaria ()
• Urborg ()

Urza's Saga

Urza's Saga introduced a cycle of legendary lands that could produce huge amounts of mana of its associated color, except for Phyrexian Tower and Shivan Gorge.

• Serra's Sanctum ()
• Tolarian Academy ()
• Phyrexian Tower ()
• Shivan Gorge ()
• Gaea's Cradle ()

A mega-megacycle of legendary lands representing important locations of the Weatherlight Saga. All of them are utility lands with the exception of Teferi's Isle, which is a phasing tapland that produces .

One land was printed in each of the five blocks that make up the saga: Mirage block, Tempest block, Urza block, Masques block and Invasion block.
