It's fun to have aesthetic matching basic lands though, mtg is a fashion show at heart

> Not adapting the basic lands to the theme of your deck.

In which case do something from scars of mirrodin block.

Only if you're a special snowflake

Anything that has tap symbols, slanted T tap symbol or literally the word "TAP"

All other basic lands that do not have these criteria are INFERIOR with exception of Snow-Covered and Portal Three Kingdoms lands.

White boarder or full arts to make fetching easier. It's not about aesthetics, it's about functionality.

>>53047813
I prefer Unlimited.

Front side of Unlimited cards look in better condition than the back side. Even played ones look okay.

Easy to find when searching because of white border. Not utter garbage look like 5th edition and later shit.

Some semblance of pimping as they are old.

Affordable and relatively plentiful (compared to guru and the likes).

NM Beta basics would be my ultimate choice, but those are tougher to find.

Any that say "T: Add [mana] to your mana pool" instead of just having that huge mana symbol.

Islands cards that actually show islands are objectively the best, OP. Don't buy non-island islands.
