A-Base Camp

The "A-" prefix marks this as an Alchemy rebalance of a class-tribal fixing land, and the rebalance is a study in how small the smoothing can be. The base design has always carried two modes: a plain colorless tap that works no matter what your hand looks like, and a restricted any-color tap spendable only on Cleric, Rogue, Warrior, or Wizard spells and abilities. That structure already answered the classic conditional-fixing liability, since the colorless fallback means the land is never a fully dead draw when you have drifted off-type. What the original paid for that flexibility was speed: it entered tapped, a tempo tax that quietly punished you on the turns a fixing land most wants to come down ready. The digital revision simply drops the enters-tapped clause, letting the land arrive untapped and produce mana the turn you play it. It is a narrow adjustment, and a telling one about what Alchemy rebalancing tends to reach for. Rather than rewrite the class-tribal condition or touch the color-fixing itself, the change targets the one line that made an otherwise reasonable land feel a beat behind. The result is the same conditional fixer with its tempo cost lifted, a card whose identity was never its ceiling but its timing.
