Put the rest on the bottom in a random order.)

Where it came from
Hit the Mother Lode was released in late 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering expansion The Lost Caverns of Ixalan. This set returned players to the plane of Ixalan, a setting heavily inspired by Mesoamerican cultures, adventure literature, and subterranean exploration. The card captures the high-stakes, treasure-seeking theme central to the set's narrative, where factions vied for control over Orazca and the deeper mysteries buried beneath the earth.
The card was illustrated by artist Wisnu Tan, who utilized a dynamic and vibrant color palette to depict the excitement of uncovering a vast fortune. The design emphasizes the 'discover' mechanic introduced in this set, which allows players to exile cards from their library until they hit a nonland card of a certain value, mechanically simulating the act of digging through ruins to find powerful rewards. It was generally well-received by players for its thematic resonance and its utility in high-mana strategy decks.
