About Rest for the Weary

Rest for the Weary, Instant, designed by James Paick first released in Feb, 2010 in the set Worldwake. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 6.37.

This card, Rest for the Weary, would be beneficial in a White deck focused on gaining life and triggering landfall abilities. Decks that aim to stall the game and gain incremental advantages would find this card useful, especially in combination with other life gain synergies. However, there are potentially better cards for similar effects, such as Sphinx's Revelation or Timely Reinforcements, which offer more versatile or impactful effects. Whether Rest for the Weary should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, but it could be a solid inclusion in the right context.

Rules

03/01/10

The effect of this spell’s landfall ability replaces its normal effect. If you had a land enter the battlefield under your control this turn, only the landfall-based effect happens.

03/01/10

The landfall ability checks for an action that has happened in the past. It doesn’t matter if a land that entered the battlefield under your control previously in the turn is still on the battlefield, is still under your control, or is still a land.

03/01/10

Whether you had a land enter the battlefield under your control this turn is checked as this spell resolves, not as you cast it.
