About Ordered Migration

Ordered Migration, Sorcery, designed by Heather Hudson first released in Oct, 2000 in the set Invasion. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.39.

This card, Ordered Migration, would benefit a deck that focuses on having a diverse range of basic land types among its lands, such as a five-color control deck. While it can potentially generate a good number of flying Bird tokens, there are more efficient token generators available in Magic: the Gathering, such as Lingering Souls or Spectral Procession, which may see more play due to their lower mana cost and immediate impact on the board. However, if the deck is built around the Domain mechanic or requires specific synergies with Bird creatures, Ordered Migration could still find a place in certain niche strategies.

Rules

03/19/21

Domain abilities count the number of basic land types among lands you control, not how many lands you control or how many of any type.

02/01/09

A number of nonbasic lands have basic land types. Domain abilities don’t count the number of lands you control — they count the number of basic land types among lands you control, even if that means checking the same land twice. For example, if you control a Tundra, an Overgrown Tomb, and a Madblind Mountain, you’ll have a Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain, and Forest among the lands you control. Your domain abilities will be maxed out.

02/01/09

To determine the number of basic land types among lands you control, look at the lands you have on the battlefield and ask yourself whether the subtypes Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain, and Forest appear within that group. The number of times you say yes (topping out at five) tells you how powerful your domain abilities will be.
