Additional Land Drops & Azusa, Lost but Seeking
Asked by Blizzicane 11 years ago
Ok say if I play Azusa, Lost but Seeking use all her land drops and play another Azusa, Lost but Seeking and sac the first one because she is legendary do I get additional land drops from the second one or not?
Also, If I use Azusa, Lost but Seeking + Summer Bloom does the additional land drops stack?
Same with Double Summer Bloom , do the land drops stack?
I know it was changed recently with M14 but I want to make sure I know how it works. I assume I do not get additional land drops from the second Azusa but I have no idea about the rest. ):

Your assumptions are correct.
Here is the exact rule for extra land drops:
- 305.2a To determine whether a player can play a land, compare the number of lands the player can play this turn with the number of lands he or she has already played this turn (including lands played as special actions and lands played during the resolution of spells and abilities). If the number of lands the player can play is greater, the play is legal.
The game remembers all the lands you have played this turn, and compares it to the number of lands you're allowed to play. Azusa, Lost but Seeking will add 2 to the number of lands you're allowed to play. This ability is a continuous effect, so casting another and sac'ing the old one won't add more to it.
Summer Bloom adds to the number you can play on the turn it is cast. This is a one-shot effect and it is cumulative ,the same way if you cast two Giant Growth 's the creature will get +6/+6 until end of turn.
If you use both of these, they will stack in the way you want: you'll be able to play 6 lands that turn.

Note that the legend rule doesn't cause you to sacrifice anything. You merely put the permanents into their owner's graveyard.

"Dies" just means "is put into the graveyard from the battlefield." A creature dies if it is put into the graveyard from the battlefield for any reason.

I want to know if I have azusa, exploration, oracle out how many lands can i play? Is it 5? Very important because this always happens in my play group. I was under the impression these were continuous abilities that did not "stack".

@EDHLOVE: Check the post dates before responding. You should have asked a new question rather than replying to an old one.
Also, link all cards in your post.
Azusa, Lost but Seeking
Exploration
Oracle of Mul Daya
You can play five lands.
They are all continuous effects, so they don't use the stack, but they do "stack" (remember that "stack" is also a slang term meaning "to interact in an additive manner"). Each card's effect will increment the number of lands you can play by the specified number.

I know that everything apart from double azusa stacks, but I'd guess that double azusa doesn't stack.
