About Nissa's Expedition

Nissa's Expedition, Sorcery, designed by Dan Murayama Scott first released in Jul, 2014 in the set Magic 2015 and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.70.

A deck that focuses on ramping up mana quickly and efficiently, such as a green ramp deck or a creature-heavy deck that can easily tap creatures for convoke, would benefit from including Nissa's Expedition. However, there are better cards like Cultivate or Kodama's Reach that offer similar effects with more flexibility and consistency, making them more popular choices for ramp decks. Nissa's Expedition could see play in budget decks or decks looking for redundancy in ramp effects, but it may not be a top-tier choice in competitive settings.
