From Blogatog, Mark Rosewater's Tumblr:

"Ive been getting these two questions about Battle for Zendikar quite a bit, so I think its time I finally answered them.

First, yes, Battle for Zendikar will be the return of full-art lands. Ive seen them and youre all in for a real treat.

Second, Battle for Zendikar does have a cool rare cycle of dual lands, but theyre brand new designs and not the Zendikar fetch lands."

Jace has been getting to much attitude lately. I hope Ugin uses his awesome magic to rip out and crush Jace's soul. Uppity little prick.

It's worth noting that Jace can't really handle the Eldrazi very well in combat.

Wait a minute, if its a "puzzle of hedrons" then why doesn't Ugin, who with Nahiri put them up in the first place, know how to solve it?

Anyone know a place to pre-order fat packs online for a decent price? (aka not $50 after shipping) I want those full art basics.

That Omnath though....with the plethora of ramp and land ETB (ala Animist's Awakening) around right now he/she is so OP!!

We have an actual bfz spoiler thread now, so we can keep all the spoiler discussion in one forum.

SomethingRandom How about your FLGS? Remember, you can't play at Cardkingdom, wal-mart, or target.

So, I saw a rumor for what the lands in BFZ are. No clue if it's legit, but I want T/O's opinion on them.

G/W Land

Land - Forest Plains

~ enters the battlefield tapped unless you control at least two basic lands.

Thoughts?

Sauce please JWiley129?

Serra_Sentinel - it's from a guy on MTGSalvation, so take the design with a grain of salt.

August 29, 2015 2:12 p.m.

I was hoping though :/

That design seems good enough to be Standard playable for sure, but maybe not for Modern and such. Idk, could some combination of Fectches, Shocks, BFZ lands, and some utility (depending on what deck you're playing, of course), with the rest being basic land be enough to produce a consistent manabase in Modern?

the new dual lands are ok, not good enough for modern relevance.

I feel like they could be a 1-2 of in dual colored decks since you can get them end of turn or a shock if you need it right them. Rather draw into a shock than this but eot this is a better option.
