Set Mechanics

Previous Magic sets have included double-faced cards that required you to play them with their front faces up and transform them in some way to get to the back faces. The Zendikar Rising set features an exciting new take on this concept with modal double-faced cards: they don't transform, but instead you can play either face right away!

If you've got a land in your party—well, lands can't be party members, but you can certainly be rewarded each time one enters the battlefield under your control. The landfall ability word highlights these abilities for you. An ability word appears in italics and has no rules meaning.

Kicker is a returning keyword that lets you pay an additional cost for a spell to give it a little more oomph.

There ain't no party like an adventuring party, and the expedition houses of Zendikar strongly encourage you to take a well-formed party on your journey. You never know when you'll need someone to heal you, sneak around, deliver a good solid punch, or harness the mystical forces that make up the very fabric of the Multiverse to produce the perfect cup of tea.

If you've got a Warrior in your party, you probably like to attack. A lot. Warriors in this set don't have a unifying mechanic, but they benefit greatly both from attacking and from these "snap-on" Equipment, each of which comes with one free attachment.

If you've got a Wizard in your party, you may be rewarded for casting certain spells that Wizards like: instants, sorceries, and even more Wizards.
