Climb the Monastery
Cori Mountain Monastery from the Tarkir Dragonstorm cycle is a borderless foil land that slots into tempo sensitive builds and control shells with thoughtful utility. The Near Mint condition preserves the full foil treatment and the art by Constantin Marin reads clearly across the card, showing the tiered rooftops and distant spires that match the card ability which rewards board states with Islands or Plains. In play the land is straightforward to evaluate; it usually comes in tapped, it produces red mana, and it gives you a repeatable way to turn topdecked cards into actual plays over two turns.
The secondary ability lets you exile the top card and play it until the end of your next turn for the investment of three and a red plus tapping. That interaction creates windowed advantage in multi turn sequences and pairs well with redraw effects and cards that care about playing nonland permanents from exile. Use it to smooth draws, set up a combo piece, or to pressure opponents while maintaining tempo. If you value predictable mana sources and a tactical late game card advantage option this borderless foil is a practical upgrade to foil land suites or commander bases. Add this Near Mint foil to your collection or playset and put Cori Mountain Monastery to work in your next match.
