Forest is one of the five basic land types and provides green mana.
Description
Forests are needed to cast green spells.[1] There is also snow variant of the basic land, the Snow-Covered Forest.
Forest is the most often used basic land type, since it appears outside of cycles:
- Dryad Arbor (Future Sight), which is also the only true land creature.
- Murmuring Bosk (Morningtide), which is also the only tri-colored tribal land.[2]
Rules
From the glossary of the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)
- Forest
- One of the five basic land types. Any land with this subtype has the ability “{T}: Add {G}.” See rule 305.6.
Storyline
Woodlands are different in every world, but they have certain commonalities — oaks and elms, for example, can be found almost anywhere that has trees, and the scent of their leaves never varies much.[3]
