# Mountain (Zendikar Rising) This basic land from Zendikar Rising represents a straightforward collecting decision. Most players need Mountains for red decks, making nonfoil copies practical staples rather than collectible prizes. The foil version appeals to those building premium decks or completing foil sets, though basic lands rarely command collector attention compared to unique spells. Zendikar Rising's art direction gave each basic land distinctive illustrations, so some players prefer specific versions for aesthetic reasons. The real collecting interest lies in completing full-art or special frame variants if available, rather than the standard versions. For most collectors, Mountains function as functional necessities rather than meaningful acquisitions.
