Open the Gate
Matzalantli, the Great Door is a compact toolkit for graveyard focused decks that value selection and late game payoffs. For {3} you get a Legendary Artifact that can smooth your draws with a simple Tap ability that reads tap to draw a card then discard a card. That exchange is efficient in decks that exploit the graveyard or want to filter toward key pieces while feeding threshold or type counts.
The card also offers a transformation route for longer games. Paying 4 and tapping transforms Matzalantli, the Great Door but only when your graveyard contains four or more permanent types. That conditional cost rewards diverse deckbuilding and careful sequencing. Use it to refill your hand early and then convert it into a bigger engine once your graveyard covers lands creatures artifacts enchantments and planeswalkers.
