With Nirkana Revenant, is her effect viable with Crypt of the Agadeem?

Asked by dafnier 13 years ago

Lets say I have Nirkana Revenant on the field, is she able to double the output of Crypt's mana when it normally taps for 1 black and not for its second effect? Or is it purely only for basic land Swamps?

Nirkana Revenant 's ability applies only to Swamps that you tap for mana. It doesn't haven't to be a basic land though. Any land with the Swamp subtype, such as Leechridden Swamp will net you the extra mana.

If for some reason there's a Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth running around, then your Crypt of Agadeem with a Nirkana Revenant out will produce twice as much mana.

@Sporkife

Actually, Nirkana Revenant will only give you one more Black mana. This is because it reads: "Whenever you tap a swamp for mana, add B to your mana pool." As you would only be tapping the Crypt of Agadeem once for mana, so the Revenant's ability only triggers once.
