Limited summary

Eight-mana sorcery: put every land from your top twenty onto the battlefield tapped and gain 8. On its own it's a flooded-out haymaker; with Landfall payoffs on board it's a one-card avalanche of triggers.

Gameplay notes

Each land entering is a separate Landfall trigger — with a payoff out, this can be a finisher rather than ramp. Without payoffs it's usually too slow for Limited.
