Rulings (2)
- Forestcycling is a variant of the cycling ability. Unlike cycling (which allows you to draw a card), forestcycling allows you to search your library for a Forest card. The card you find can be a basic Forest or any land card with the Forest land type.
- Any ability that triggers whenever a card is cycled will trigger if you activate a forestcycling ability.
