Ridge Rannet card art
Ridge Rannet is a 5/4 for seven mana with landcycling for two — the body is irrelevant, the cycling is the card. Play it exclusively as a tutorable land in decks that want basic Mountains or Forests, and cut it the moment you have access to better cyclers.

In Commander, Ridge Rannet earns its slot in exactly one context: landcycling-matters builds or five-color goodstuff decks that need to reliably find a basic land type for under two mana. In Pauper, where commons rule and land-fixing is genuinely constrained, Ridge Rannet sees occasional play in cycling-synergy shells alongside cards like Fluctuator. Legacy and Vintage have no reason to touch it — the formats move too fast for a seven-mana 5/4 with no immediate impact, and better land-fetching options exist at every budget. It is not legal in Pioneer or Standard, which is inconsequential given its power level.
