Myriad Landscape
12% of tracked Commander decks run Myriad Landscape. When drawn, 73% of copies reach the battlefield, with a median first activation landing on turn 4.
Myriad Landscape is a colorless ramp land that earns a slot in roughly 12% of the 6164 tracked Commander decks on Playgroup Live. It enters tapped, produces a single colorless mana on its own, and pays off when you sacrifice it for up to two basic lands that share a type. That delayed value proposition is the defining tension in every game it appears.
The draw-to-play rate sits at 73%, meaning most drawn copies do reach activation. Median first cast (or play, for a land) lands on turn 4, consistent with a turn-1 or turn-2 drop followed by a later sacrifice. The distribution shows a real cluster at turn 1, reflecting hands where Landscape is kept for early land sequencing, with the bulk of activations spread across turns 2 through 7.
Because Myriad Landscape has no color identity, it fits into any Commander deck that runs basics. The top commanders pairing with it span every color combination, which matches its role as a universal fixing and ramp option. It is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, Duel Commander, and Oathbreaker, and is not available in Standard, Modern, Pioneer, or Pauper.

First-cast turn
n=227The "good card" funnel
1201 brought · 513 playersOf 1201 copies brought to tracked games, 310 were drawn and 227 of those were cast or played, with the majority ending in the graveyard after their sacrifice activation.
Players who cast this card win 28% of the time (n=226) , vs 23% when it never left the library (n=811).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 26% (n=84) — about the same as leaving it in the library. Those players survived long enough to draw it, so the gap above is about the card resolving, not just about surviving.
Observed gap +5.3pp; 95% confidence interval -0.5pp to +11.1pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
