Untap Mastery with Magus of the Candelabra
Illuminate your strategy with Magus of the Candelabra from Commander: Modern Horizons 3 in Light Play condition. This green creature sits low on the curve but offers real late game payoffs. It is a 1/2 Human Wizard whose standout feature is an activated ability that reads X, T: Untap X target lands, letting you turn a single milestone into multiple mana opportunities. Its mana cost is {G}{G}, making it a practical two mana investment that can unlock big plays when you need to rebound from a stalled turn or push into your next big sequence.
In practice, Magus rewards careful planning and tempo. Pair it with other untap effects to maximize your mana base on key turns or to fuel accused of big adventures in a multi player environment. The flavor text in the set nods to Urza and Teferi, weaving tradition with innovation and hinting at the enduring craft behind this archetype.
