Rain of Salt destroys two lands — full stop, no conditions, no targeting restrictions beyond basic legality — for six mana at sorcery speed. That cost is steep enough to keep it off most tables, but in dedicated land destruction builds it pulls its weight by doubling the tempo hit in a single card.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Rain of Salt is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but the only format where it sees any real consideration is Commander. Legacy and Vintage have access to far more efficient land disruption and wouldn't touch a six-mana sorcery. In Commander, Rain of Salt occupies a narrow lane: dedicated stax or land destruction decks that want redundancy past Devastate and Ruination, where wiping two lands at once can set a single opponent back far enough to matter.

Price Context
Current price
$0.76 bulk tier
At $0.76, Rain of Salt is firmly bulk — cheap enough that including it costs you nothing financially. Demand is too narrow for the price to move meaningfully in either direction.
