About Geomancer's Gambit

Geomancer's Gambit, Sorcery, designed by Adam Paquette first released in May, 2019 in the set Modern Horizons and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of ₱ 20.30.

A deck focused on land destruction or resource denial strategies would benefit from including Geomancer's Gambit, as it provides a way to disrupt the opponent's mana base while also allowing them to search for a basic land, potentially slowing them down. However, there are more efficient land destruction cards available in formats like Magic: the Gathering, such as Stone Rain or Molten Rain, which offer more immediate and impactful land destruction without giving the opponent a benefit. Overall, Geomancer's Gambit could see situational play in specific metagames or strategies, but there are likely better options for consistent land destruction.

Rules

06/14/19

If the target land is an illegal target by the time Geomancer’s Gambit tries to resolve, the spell doesn’t resolve. Its controller doesn’t search for a basic land card and you don’t draw a card. If the target is legal but not destroyed (most likely because it has indestructible), its controller does search and you do draw.
