- Wizards of the Coast2006-10-15 · official rulingYou can fetch any of the "Snow-Covered" lands, since they all also have the supertype basic.
- Wizards of the Coast2009-10-01 · official rulingThis ability has an "intervening 'if' clause." That means (1) the ability won't trigger at all unless any one of your opponents controls more lands than you, and (2) the ability will do nothing if you control at least as many lands as each of your opponents by the time it resolves.

- Wizards of the Coast2012-06-20 · editedLand Tax was unbanned in legacy on June 20, 2012. While the Legacy metagame is healthy, the DCI is still interested in occasionally unbanning some cards to see if they improve the format. Land Tax has been banned since 2004, doesn't seem to directly add to the top decks, and could make the format even more diverse. While there is always some risk in unbanning a powerful card, the DCI thinks this is a reasonable risk to take.Indexed from DCI B&R List Announcement—June 20, 2012.
