Three Visits is a two-mana Forest tutor that functions as one of the cleanest pieces of ramp in Commander — it enters untapped, accelerates immediately, and slots into any green deck without a second thought. The only real trade-off is the Forest requirement: non-basic-heavy builds and commanders like Zimone, Infinite Analyst that lean on Islands over Forests will sometimes find it dead in hand.
Where It Shines
Where the extra mana on turn one matters most
Big-mana shells like The Ur-Dragon
The Ur-Dragon costs nine mana, and Three Visits on turn one is exactly the kind of acceleration that makes turn-four or turn-five dragon payoffs realistic — every land-based ramp piece that enters untapped is pulling serious weight in five-color shells where colored mana is always at a premium.
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 | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Commander is where Three Visits earns its reputation — the 100-card singleton format rewards consistent, early acceleration, and a two-mana tutor that produces an untapped land is near the ceiling of what ramp spells can do. In Pauper it's legal and worth a look in any green shell, though the competition from other cheap ramp is steeper at that power level. Legacy and Vintage have it legal, but the formats move too fast and the card doesn't interact enough to see meaningful play there. Three Visits is a Commander card in practice, full stop.

Price Context
Current price
$6.60 mid tier
At $6.60, Three Visits sits in the mid tier — not a free include, but not a budget obstacle either for a card that belongs in virtually every green Commander deck. It's been reprinted enough to keep the price accessible, and the demand floor is high enough that it doesn't crater.
