question about Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
Asked by hrbj 10 years ago
For example, i've got Overgrown Tomb and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth . Does the Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth work with Overgrown Tomb if I tap it for Swamp ?
what do you mean "work with"? you can already tap Overgrown Tomb for black mana (not Swamp ). Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth is used by black decks to color fix making it easier to hit black costs.
also this is a rules question, which should be asked in the MTG Q&A which you can find at the top of any tappedout page. Epochalyptik will be along to move this shortly.

It is already a swamp. Urborg is irrelevant for that card.

Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth basically makes every land a swamp in addition to its normal type. What that means is any land you can tap for its original type, you can also treat as a swamp and tap for black. It also affects cards that would read like "do something for X swamps you control" so all your lands would be swamps in that regard.
As far as Overgrown Tomb , the effect, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth has is completely irrelevant because it ALREADY can tap for black. Where it might actually be of value is with Llanowar Wastes because, since it's now a swamp too, you can tap for black without taking damage. They're also useful with colorless lands like Mutavault which, with a Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth could also tap for black.

First, this question has nothing to do with spoilers, rumors, or speculation. Please read the forum descriptions before posting.
Rules questions belong in the Q&A, which is linked in the header bar. I can't move this thread to the Q&A, so I'm moving it to BE.

The most important thing tomb of yawgmoth does is enable Sheoldred, Whispering One to swampwalk through for unblockable commander damage

You've clearly never used Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
+ Cabal Coffers
. Disgusting ramp interaction, especially in 
.
Mana Web is also very good.

That's good too but I still like the swampwalk aspect myself

In what respect? Urborg can tap for black mana.
Overgrown still can do both.
A forest just pretty much becomes an overgrown tomb.
You cannot get double black out of your land, if that's what you're asking.
