Bond and Turbulent Lands Reportedly Return in 2027 Commander Precons
Gavin Verhey reportedly confirmed that both the Battlebond bond lands and the turbulent lands from Secrets of Strixhaven will be reprinted in 2027 Commander precons. The word came in a YouTube Short on the Good Morning Magic channel, and he repeated that the turbulent cycle will be printed over the next year. The Selesnya and Gruul turbulent lands have not been printed yet, so the cycle is still incomplete. Neither color pair was supported in Secrets of Strixhaven, and Reality Fracture had only one precon with no green. The Short was published the day before the Draftsim article, which is dated November 4, 2026. All ten bond lands were already reprinted across the 2026 Commander precons. Once the turbulent cycle is complete, Universes Beyond precons will "usually" have one bond land, and in-universe precons will "usually" have one turbulent land. Verhey said these numbers might change; for example, a colorless precon cannot print either cycle because of color identity restrictions. Turbulent lands enter untapped only if opponents control eight or more lands in total; if one opponent has lost, the two remaining opponents need four lands each. They also have basic land types, which matters for cards such as fetch lands, Farseek and Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle.
