Sluice and Scheme
Dimir Aqueduct is a practical utility land for decks that value both tempo and color fixing. The card name appears in play as a tapped land that trades a land drop for reliable mana. Use it when you need to maintain a two color shell while keeping threats or utility lands in hand for reuse. The enter the battlefield clause makes timing matter; returning a land can be a defensive reset or a way to reuse a land with an enters the battlefield trigger.
As part of the Murders at Karlov Manor texture, this aqueduct fits Dimir's methodical play. It smooths out early game mana and can enable recursion lines with cards that care about lands entering the battlefield. Experienced players will slot it where maintaining blue and black access is worth a small tempo cost. It is straightforward to read during a mulligan window and predictable in mid to late game sequencing.
