# Plains (Magic 2013) Plains is a basic land, the fundamental white mana source that appears in virtually every Magic set. The Magic 2013 version holds modest collector interest primarily through its artwork and foil availability. Collectors typically pursue basic lands for aesthetic reasons rather than gameplay value, since any Plains functions identically in constructed formats. The foil variant commands slightly more attention among collectors building complete foil sets or appreciating the card's visual presentation. Magic 2013 Plains won't appreciate significantly in value, but it remains a practical inclusion for anyone assembling a comprehensive collection of the set or pursuing foil basics from this particular era.
