Sphere is a nonbasic land type used for cards that depict the Spheres of New Phyrexia.[1]
Description
Spheres were introduced in Phyrexia: All Will Be One.[2] There are exactly nine cards with the Sphere typeline, corresponding with the Spheres of New Phyrexia.[1] Five of these form a colored cycle at common. The remaining four were then designed top down and put at rare.[1]

Other
- Monument to Perfection can search for a Sphere card. It is the only card that cares about the subtype Sphere. Ezuri, Stalker of Spheres, from the same set, doesn't interact with Spheres.
- Planar Nexus has the subtype due to its ability to have all non-basic land types, but it is not written on its typeline.
- Artifacts or Enchantments named Sphere (e.g. Commander's Sphere, Capture Sphere) can't have the Sphere type.
Rules
From the Comprehensive Rules (June 7, 2024—Modern Horizons 3)

The land types are Cave, Desert, Forest, Gate, Island, Lair, Locus, Mine, Mountain, Plains, Power-Plant, Sphere, Swamp, Tower, and Urza’s. Of that list, Forest, Island, Mountain, Plains, and Swamp are the basic land types. See rule 305.6.
