You may have it become a 3/3 Elemental creature with haste and menace until end of turn. It's still a land. −5: You may put a creature card with mana value less than or equal to the number of lands you control onto the battlefield from your hand or graveyard with two +1/+1 counters on it.

  • WotCNov 8, 2024

    A landfall ability doesn't trigger if a permanent already on the battlefield becomes a land.

  • WotCNov 8, 2024

    A landfall ability triggers whenever a land you control enters for any reason. It triggers whenever you play a land, as well as whenever a spell or ability puts a land onto the battlefield under your control.

  • WotCNov 8, 2024

    Whenever a land you control enters, each landfall ability of the permanents you control will trigger. You can put them   on the stack in any order. The last ability you put on the stack will be the first one to resolve (As a result, you can have those abilities resolve in the order of your choosing.).

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    Effects that modify the power or toughness of the land creature without setting it will apply to its new base power and toughness no matter when they started to take effect. The same is true for counters that change its power and toughness.

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    If a card in a player's hand or graveyard has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    Nissa's middle ability can target a land that's already untapped or that's already a creature.

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    Nissa's middle ability doesn't remove any abilities the land creature has.

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    Nissa's middle ability overwrites any previous effects that set the land creature's power and/or toughness to specific values. Other effects that set these characteristics to specific values that start to apply after the ability resolves will overwrite that part of the effect.

  • WotCSep 25, 2020

    The creature card's mana value is checked only in your hand or graveyard. You may put a creature card onto the battlefield whose mana value becomes greater than the number of lands you control once it's on the battlefield, most likely because it enters as a copy of another permanent.
