Bring back your land and build up a mighty mana base with the aid of this new Murders at Karlov Manor card.

Undergrowth Recon is an incredible new Land ramp option debuting in Murders at Karlov Manor. In the right hands, Undergrowth Recon can allow players to fetch out a reliable stream of land cards every single turn.

For just three mana, this card is well worth including in any deck that pitches lands to the grave, including Commander favorites like Lord Windgrace and The Gitrog Monster.

MTG fans were quick to react positively to Undergrowth Recon, pointing out how well it can work in conjunction with specific land cards.

Over on Reddit, user travishall456 said:

“In the right deck, this is in insane Ramp card, and works in multiples.”

In the same reveal thread, Reddit commenter Artex301 asked:

“How much mana would a Rampant Growth every upkeep would cost, I wonder.

“Because that’s basically what this is with a single New Capenna fetchland in your graveyard.”

Rampant Growth remains one of MTG’s most beloved cards for a reason, allowing players with green mana to build up their land quickly and reliably.

While MTG’s Streets of New Capenna was a less popular set than Wizards of the Coast had hoped, there are still many elements of the set that see use to this day.

The New Capenna fetchlands are one such element, allowing players to sacrifice a land and search for a specific basic land, putting it directly onto the battlefield and gaining one life. With Undergrowth Recon on the field, these fetchlands can be brought back, again and again, to bring out more land from the deck each turn.
