mtg lotr chase cards Magic The Gathering Lotr Chase Card What causing this to spike?

For one, I'd think about my deck

Legendary Creature Artifact - Robot Color tag templates(None) Emissary Escort This creature gets +X/+0, where X is the greatest mana value among other artifacts you control

Of course, this should happen a lot faster now that youre playing two lands per turn

This makes Kudos ability a bit redundant for your board, but its still an effective hatebear all on its own and looks great surrounded by an army of Grizzly Bears, Runeclaw Bear, Mother Bear, and all those other 2/2s for 2

Worse, needing to pay a mana cost and cast a spell to put lands into play completely negates those fundamental advantages that drew us to play Lands in the first place
