Each player who controls six or more lands chooses five lands they control and sacrifices the rest.

Sources, methodology, and disclosureOpen
NeoPrice and Pricing Confidence use the existing NeoCardAlpha methodology. CardTrader is the inventory source, TCGplayer is the primary pricing source, and Card Kingdom is validation-only.
NeoCardAlpha may earn a commission from certain marketplace links.
Card Kingdom retail validation is visible when a matching product is available, but it remains a validation source.
