Bloodstained Mire: Quick Access to Swamps and Mountains
Bloodstained Mire is a rare land from Modern Horizons 3 that strengthens a mana base designed for red and black. You activate its ability by tapping to pay 1 life and sacrificing Bloodstained Mire to search your library for a Swamp or Mountain card and put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle. This fetch helps fix colors on demand, letting you hit your red or black mana when you need it. It stays efficient in multicolor decks that lean on fast access to the right colors while thinning the stack of poor draws.
Flavor hints from the art suggest a graveyard for conquerors and conquered alike, a place where power leaves its mark. In practice the Mire offers reliable color fixing with a built in resource cost, a measured tool that supports slower hands or quick starts. It pairs well with other fetch lands and graveyard strategies, giving you consistent access to Swamps and Mountains across your plan.
