Utility Land

Catch-all bucket for lands whose value comes from text beyond producing mana: graveyard hate on Bojuka Bog, land destruction on Strip Mine and Wasteland, hand-size lifting on Reliquary Tower, token creation on Field of the Dead and Urza's Saga, or scalable removal on Blast Zone. These cards are slotted into decks for their abilities, often at the cost of color flexibility. Distinct from land_types.dual_land and the various conditional-entry cycles like land_types.check_land or land_types.shock_land, which are categorized purely by their mana-fixing entry templating; utility_land covers lands whose printed text does something meaningful beyond tapping for mana.
