About Natural Affinity

Natural Affinity, Instant, designed by Pete Venters first released in Oct, 1999 in the set Mercadian Masques and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 1.22. It's a key card in 1 combos.

This card, Natural Affinity, would benefit decks that focus on land-based strategies, such as decks that ramp quickly with mana acceleration or decks that have synergies with lands becoming creatures. While it can be a powerful surprise tactic to turn all lands into creatures, it can also leave you vulnerable to board wipes or removal spells targeting lands. A better alternative could be Living Lands, which turns all lands into 1/1 creatures with the ability to attack and block. Whether Natural Affinity sees play depends on the specific deck strategy and meta, but it can be a fun and unexpected inclusion in the right circumstances.

Rules

08/01/08

A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.
