Urban Burgeoning

Enchantment — AuraGreen mana

Most ramp asks for an extra land or an extra mana; this asks for extra untaps. By keying the bonus to every other player's untap step, it turns one land into a battery that refreshes each time a turn passes to someone else, leaving mana available at instant speed during the rest of the table's actions. The math scales with the number of opponents: in a four-player game, an enchanted land that taps for two effectively produces eight mana over a full rotation, six of it usable on turns that are not yours. That is the real design hook. This is not a card for fueling a faster combo deck; it is a card for holding up interaction, flashing in threats, and activating expensive abilities while the spotlight sits elsewhere. Heads-up it still works, untapping during your single opponent's untap step so the land taps on your turn and again on theirs, but the payoff narrows to one extra activation per cycle rather than three, which is why the card has always lived in the multiplayer corner of the design space rather than the competitive one. The natural partners are lands that produce more than one mana or carry their own activated abilities: a land that mills, a land that draws, a land that makes Treasure, each firing on a loop a single tap could never sustain. What it sells, under a humble one-mana shell, is access to your mana at windows when the rest of the table is acting.
