Several cards care about the number of Caves in play.
Trivia
- Cave once was a proposed basic land type that would have been associated with Purple.[2][3]
- There are currently no plans to errata older cards that are flavored as caves (e.g. Bloodfell Caves, Gemstone Caverns, Cave of Temptation, <c<Caves of Koilos</c>, Cavern of Souls)[4]
