Set-Mechaniken

There are plenty of treasures (not to be confused with Treasures) in Ixalan's network of underground caves, but just like Ixalan itself, many of these treasures are more than they seem on the surface. With the right materials, innocuous discoveries can be turned into powerful artifacts.

Discovery is an exciting pursuit. You never know what you'll find! Well, you might know, actually, because the discover keyword action allows you to dig into your library and cast something for free.

The deeper you go into the caves under Ixalan's surface, the more exciting the finds will be. Of course, the further you descend, the more dangerous things become. Descend is a new rules term that refers to times that a permanent card is put into your graveyard from anywhere.

If a creature you control explores, you reveal the top card of your library. If the revealed card is a land, representing your creature finding some new territory you can check out, put that card into your hand. If it's not a land card, your creature comes back empty-handed (or empty-winged, empty-taloned, empty-pawed, etc.) but still benefits from the attempt. Specifically, you put a +1/+1 counter on it. Then, you decide whether the nonland card goes back on top of your library or into your graveyard.

Bringing someone (or something) back from the grave isn't always easy. Sometimes it's a one-time deal, and that's where finality counters come in.
