Urban Evolution Rules Text & Legality

Urban Evolution

Draw three cards. You may play an additional land this turn.

As the Simic released more of their krasis experiments, they required new habitats, always at the expense of the locals.

Urban Evolution is legal in Pioneer, Modern, Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard and Pauper.

Urban Evolution Rulings

  • Dec 7, 2018

    If you somehow manage to cast Urban Evolution when it's not your turn, you'll draw three cards when it resolves, but you won't be able to play a land that turn.

  • Dec 7, 2018

    The effects of multiple Urban Evolutions in the same turn are cumulative. They're also cumulative with other effects that let you play additional lands, such as the one from Explore.

  • Dec 7, 2018

    Urban Evolution's effect allows you to play an additional land during your main phase. Doing so follows the normal timing rules for playing lands. In particular, you don't get to play a land as Urban Evolution resolves; Urban Evolution fully resolves first and you draw three cards, perhaps including a land you'll play later.
