Nissa's Triumph

SorceryGreen manaGreen mana

Two green mana to put a pair of basic Forests into your hand is a deliberately stiff rate, a floor priced low enough that no deck feels cheated but no deck feels rewarded either. The card is built as a loyalty check: control any Nissa planeswalker and the effect swaps into a search for up to three lands of any kind, no longer restricted to basics or to Forests. That is the difference between fixing your colors and tutoring for whatever your manabase actually wants (utility lands, duals, a one-of you needed to draw), all delivered to hand rather than onto the battlefield, so the payoff is card advantage and selection, not a burst of mana. The structure is a conditional bonus wearing the costume of a fixed effect, the same lever planeswalker-support cards had used before: a baseline anyone can cast and a ceiling only the intended shell touches. What sets this one apart is what unlocks the ceiling. It does not key off a color or a keyword but off a named character on the battlefield, tying its upside to a specific planeswalker rather than a mechanic. Fitting, given that Nissa has spent her entire run yanking lands out of libraries; this reads as a small piece of tribal support built around her, with a search-to-hand payoff that lands wherever her presence is felt.
