Also, many control decks or decks with a high curve will play as many as 28 lands out of 60 to guarantee hitting every land drop on their way to 5 or 6 mana. |
Back in the day, my Bigger and Better Fireballs deck had 24-26 lands in it. As many of those were R/G, R/B, and B/G multilands as I could get my hands on, and I actually took Earthbond so I could lay as many down as I could from my 4 Howling Mines that would come out.
Sorry for the digression, I just loved that deck. It was great fun. Half the meanness came from the multiple Howling Mines and Mana Flares spewing chaos everywhere. I was prepared for it, my opponents weren't. Wasn't great in tournaments, but quite good in casual play.
