Artifact land is a term used in reference to the six common land cards printed in Mirrodin and Darksteel that also have the artifact type.[1] They contributed to the dominance of the affinity-based deck archetypes, and thus, in March 2005, all six were banned from Standard (Darksteel Citadel however, was later reprinted in Magic 2015), and the ban did not carry over with the reprint. In Modern format, all but Darksteel Citadel were banned from the beginning. Additionally, the location depicted in each was featured in the art of the appropriate Template:Cards including card from Scars of Mirrodin.
List of artifact lands
- Ancient Den (
) - Seat of the Synod (
) - Vault of Whispers (
) - Great Furnace (

) is also indestructible.
Rules
From the glossary of the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)
- Artifact Land
- A combination of artifact and land that’s subject to the rules for both. Artifact lands can only be played as lands, not cast as spells. See rule 301, “Artifacts,” and rule 305, “Lands.”
Trivia
- The artwork of each colored artifact land was picked up to by a respective basic land from New Phyrexia, representing darker versions of the original.
- Ancient Den matches Plains (New Phyrexia, #166)
- Seat of the Synod matches Island (New Phyrexia, #168)
- Vault of Whispers matches Swamp (New Phyrexia, #170)
- Great Furnace matches Mountain (New Phyrexia, #172)
- Tree of Tales matches Forest (New Phyrexia, #174)
