Soured Springs — Tainted Oasis of Thunder Junction
Soured Springs is a utility land that fits into blue black shell decks that can tolerate a tempo trade. It enters the battlefield tapped which slows your immediate mana plan but it also punishes the opponent by dealing one point of direct damage when it arrives. This card is useful in matchups where incremental life loss matters and where late game reach from noncreature sources is welcome.
Play Soured Springs when you need reliable color fixing and a consistent one point clock. The tap ability produces either blue or black mana so it plugs cleanly into spells and interaction in both colors. In the Outlaws of Thunder Junction frame the card reads like a small but definite statement about the harsh landscape. Use it in control decks that draw out the game or in aggro lists that can afford the tempo hit for an extra damage trigger.
