MTG's 10 Best Modern Horizons 3 Cards

screenrant.com:

Not all sets are built equally. While Standard-focused expansions have a power level that's satisfying to play with, they often don't have a dramatic impact on longer-running formats like Modern. Sure, the odd card or two will break through, and inevitably there will be a stand-out that either refines or enables a new strategy, but these can generally be counted on one hand per set release. That's not true of sets, however, which feature reprints and brand-new cards being made specifically to enter the Modern format (and beyond, into Legacy and sometimes Vintage).

Unfortunately, was subject to a series of leaks last month, but instead of simply ignoring them, Wizards of the Coast embraced them and discussed the cards revealed in full to help provide players with some additional context for what to expect. While there have only been a few cards spoiled thus far, they're not lacking for excitement and power level. With plenty more to go, here's our first picks for the best cards revealed so far.

Magic: The Gathering's Fallout set introduces video games to the world of MTG. What does it mean for the game? We chat with Annie Sardelis to discuss.

Sylvan Safekeeper isn't a card that will excite most players at first glance. As a 1/1 for a single green mana, it's not likely to affect the board based on its stat value relative to its cost. As a Human, it's also not the right Kindred typing for the most obvious small, green creature deck in Elves. All of this is to say that, as far as spoilers go, this reprint is one that's likely to get lost in the shuffle a little.

Don't sleep on the Sylvan Safekeeper reprint, though. As a card with a serious Legacy pedigree, it's always a piece or two away from becoming part of an extremely obnoxious combo. Sacrificing lands can be used to a deck's benefit, whether its to trigger a specific effect or to increase the number of them in a graveyard, and cards like Elvish Reclaimer fit naturally into a strategy of abusing land effects.
