  • Only produces white mana, which is a helping in mana fixing for multicolored decks.

Deck Utility:

• Mana Base: Essential for any white-focused or multicolored deck that includes white.

• Mana Fixing: In A Multi-Color Deck That Includes White, Plains is Important For Casting Spells That Require White Mana.

Interactions and Combos:

• Fetch Lands: Plains can be fetched by cards like "flooded beach" or "arid mesa" to fix mana or trigger landfall abilities.

• Landfall Triggers: Can Trigger Landfall Abilities Like Those Found in Cards with the Landfall Mechanic.

• Disaster: Some white spells or artifacts that search for lands or look for plains specifically or can include plains as a choice.

Flavor and Lore:
Plains in Magic Often Depict Serene, wide-open landscapes that representation the peace, order, and law that characterize white mana.

Overall Impression:
As a basic country, plains is a cornerstone or any deck that utilizes white mana. It's Simple But Essential for Casting White Spells and Activating Abilities That Require White Mana. Like other basic lands, there's rarely a reason not to include it in a deck that uses white mana.
