Today, Wizards of the Coast has announced many details about the upcoming Magic: The Gathering set Zendikar Rising, the 2021 Magic sets, and new Secret Lair drops. The launch of the Zendikar Rising previews revealed many new cards including the three Planeswalker cards featured in the set, and one of them is a new Nissa card.
Nissa of Shadowed Boughs is a green and black Planeswalker card that has a Landfall ability that lets you put a loyalty counter every time a land enters the battlefield under your control. It comes into play with 4 loyalty, and can turn a land into a 3/3 with Haste and Menace until end of turn. Its -5 ability lets you play a creature card with converted mana cost less than or equal to the number of lands you control from your graveyard or your hand onto the battlefield.
Check out the regular version illustrated by Yongjae Choi and the borderless alternate-art version illustrated by David Rapoza.
Nissa of Shadowed Boughs is one of the three Planeswalker cards featured in the set. The other two were revealed last week. Nissa is probably the most powerful out of the three.
