Tarkir: Dragonstorm (TDM) #301 · Rare · Creature — Dragon

Mana cost: {2}{R}{R}

Flying
When this creature enters, destroy target nonbasic land an opponent controls. Its controller searches their library for a basic land card, puts it onto the battlefield tapped with a stun counter on it, then shuffles. (If a permanent with a stun counter would become untapped, remove one from it instead.)

It gulps from the lava flow to spew gouts of molten rock upon its prey.

Power/toughness 4/5 · Illustrated by Rafal Wechterowicz (Too Many Skulls) · Released April 11, 2025

Rulings

  1. 2025-04-04 · wotc — If the target land is an illegal target as Magmatic Hellkite’s last ability tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. No player will search their library for a basic land card.
  2. 2025-04-04 · wotc — As long as Magmatic Hellkite’s last ability resolves, the target land’s controller gets to search for a basic land card even if the target land wasn’t destroyed by the ability. This may happen because the land has indestructible.
