Creature Land
Lands with a built-in activated ability that animates the land itself into a creature, letting it swing or block while still tapping for mana on other turns. Celestial Colonnade becomes a flying 4/4, Mutavault becomes a 2/2 with all creature types, Mishra's Factory becomes a 2/2 Assembly-Worker, and Restless Cottage joins the modern set of lands that animate with extra triggers. These dodge sorcery-speed board sweeps by staying lands when not attacking. Distinct from Land Animation, which covers spells and planeswalkers that animate OTHER lands you control, this set is lands that animate THEMSELVES; and distinct from Artifact Animator, which turns noncreature artifacts into attackers. Cards that already print as a Land Creature do not match, since they are creatures rather than lands that become one.
