Can I flip face-down land?
Asked by icysonic5 2 months ago
I just bought the Deadly Disguise commander deck and I couldn't find anything online on if I'm allowed to flip land cards I seen instants and sorceries can't be but what about land?

Everything that legendofa said is correct, I would like to add a couple of examples though.
If something turns "target face-down creature face up" it will turn manifested or cloaked lands face up. Ixidor, Reality Sculptor and Expose the Culprit have this effect.
Blinking as with Momentary Blink orGhostway will return lands to the battlefield face up because of the rules of the game.

If a card is face down because of manifest or cloak, it can only be turned face up if it's a creature card. Hide in Plain Sight and Ethereal Ambush have this note in their reminder texts.
If a card specifically has an ability that lets it turn face up, like morph, megamorph, or disguise, you can turn it face up by paying that cost regardless of what card type it is. Branch of Vitu-Ghazi and Gift of Doom are examples of noncreature cards with face-down abilities.
