Island

# Island (Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths) Island is a basic land, the foundation of blue-based Magic decks across all formats and play levels. Collectors typically view basic lands as functional necessities rather than chase cards, though they appreciate distinctive artwork and frame treatments. Ikoria's Island features unique monster-world aesthetics that distinguish it from other printings. The foil variant offers visual appeal for players building premium decks, while nonfoil copies remain affordable and practical. Most collectors accumulate multiple copies through regular play or sealed product. The card's value lies in its utility and the specific artistic interpretation rather than scarcity—basic lands print in high quantities, making them accessible to anyone building a collection.
