{T}: Add {C}.
{1}{U}{R}, {T}: Draw a card, then discard a card.
Card Details
Character Background
Desolate Lighthouse is a classic looting land that quietly turns excess cards into selection, making it especially strong in blue-red control, tempo, and spells-matter shells. In gameplay terms, the basic {T}: Add {C} mode is mostly a fallback, but the activated ability—{1}{U}{R}, {T}: Draw a card, then discard a card—lets you smooth draws, dig for interaction, and pitch dead lands or situational answers in the midgame. It shines in decks that care about cards in the graveyard, like those with flashback, escape, or reanimation-style value, and it pairs well with draw-go strategies that can hold up mana on the opponent’s turn before using Lighthouse at end step. Because it costs three mana total and taps itself, it rewards slower decks that can afford a utility land over a colored source. The Doctor Who framing suits its lonely, signal-beacon feel: a place that helps a stranded pilot find the right path, one discarded card at a time.
