Fabled Lands Contest (Closed)
Hello, and welcome to Fabled Lands contest where each cardsmith designs up to four legendary lands with at least one unique ability to play with. I started this contest because whenever I look into my or any other cardsmith's profile, I do not find many legendary lands from them. Then I thought "what would be a better way to encourage people to create some legendary lands if not with a little contest"?
So here I am, ready to see what you are capable of doing with your imagination in my 1st contest!
Post your entries before the contest's due date, which is two weeks from this day (August 17th, 2017). The judging may take a few days.
Rules:
1. You may make up to four legendary lands.
2. Cards may be edited before the due date.
3. Cards may be switched out before the due date.
4. Cards can't be made before the 3rd of August (old cards are not allowed).
5. Each card must be a Legendary Land!
6. No joke cards but humor can be involved.
Prizes:
1st Place
- 4 favorites of your choice or 2 favorites of your choice and a follow.
- I will create a token from you.
2nd Place
- 3 favorites of your choice or 1 favorite of your choice and a follow.
3rd Place
- 2 favorites of your choice or a follow.
- Your choice of Honorable Mention.
Honorable Mention(s)

EDIT: Changed Ifnir, the Broken somewhat
Regardless, cool entries!
This is an older card, I just wanted to post it here. I do plan on entering though, cool contest.
The land is designed around our study mechanic.
Study (If this spell would leave the stack, its owner may exile the top two cards of their library. If they do, put it on the bottom of their library instead, then any player may have them shuffle their library.)
Question: Should I make it rare rather than mythic rare to benefit drafts?
That's OP, but cool.
First entry!
Entry #2. The quote is from Isaac Asimov's Foundation.
I'll respect your opinion. Although, given personal experience I can say it's not a healthy card for formats. Additionally, it doesn't have a limit on the ceiling value it produces. Which is a major issue since I could easily get 10 mana in a single turn by the second to third turn. (The loss of life is meaningless if I can cast a big Eldrazi on turn two or three!)

1st entry: Paying X of what?
2nd entry: The counters are removed so none of the following checks matter. You need to re-word the ability.
4th entry: Badly balanced with mechanical issues. An example is shown below!
The first is the incorrect way. Whereas the second is the proper way. (Your way doesn't require the creature be untapped!)

{1}, {t}, Tap target creature you control: [Effect].
{1}, {t}, Tap an untapped creature you control: [Effect].

1st THAT SPELL converted mana cost.
2nd IT'S JUST IN THE WRONG CHAIN. Also it's a legendary now.
4th yeah, forgot about it.
My first entry.
This might be amazing, or it might be trash. You're Emrakul, the Promised End'ing yourself, after all.
1st entry: It needs to be the mana symbol then, unless you state life or such.
2nd entry: No problem, I just wanted to make sure the card worked the way you intended.
