if only this was blue. But then maybe it would be too good.. Probably not. Blue doesn't have much more mana fixing then white does.

I was thinking about running this in a G/W EDH deck, but then I saw it said all lands, for some reason I thought it said all basic lands, that would kill my non basic lands abilities. Anyone know a card that turns all things white? Especially creatures? It has a lot of "if creature is white", buffing.

"Bleaching your lands doesn't seem to be very powerful"
It does when the white mana you produce is essentially any color. With this, a mono-white deck can play multicolored cards.
And no, it does NOT open you up to Grindstone because the lands remain colorless, they're just plains. It doesn't make them white.

for further reference, this will mess up the abilities on your non-basic lands. check the updated ruling on Contaminated Ground where it changes your land to Swamp.

From what I take about this card I should be able to build A blue/white deck with just plains in it. Play celestial dawn that way all the blue cards can be played using plains right?

Okay, I hate reading the rulings!
9/25/2006 "Enters the battlefield" triggered abilities of lands you play won't trigger since the lands will enter the battlefield as Plains. Effects that modify how those lands enter the battlefield, however, will still work. For example, if you play a Dimir Aqueduct, it will enter the battlefield tapped as a Plains, but you won't return a land to your hand.
Wow this card is so powerfull!... I gotta have it! I'm getting Scorched Ruins like 50 times in my deck, with the whole eldrazi annihalator family! Frick yeah! Ulamog FTW!!!
What does the rest of the rulings say?
9/25/2006 Land cards you own that aren't on the battlefield aren't changed to Plains.
LAAAAAAME!!!!!

It makes everything easier to play in 5-color. Prismatic Omen does an even better job of that, though (perhaps too good).

@ToXiCaTiOnS
...Even IF the card changed them to Plains at all times, how would using Scorched Ruins help at all? They'd be plains unless your deck was designed to remove the enchantment.

In EDH, if you have Zedruu as your commander and you donate this to a player whose commander isn't white, they can only make colorless mana because of how the commander rules work. It's a super dick move that would basically lock that player out of the game. I did it once to a douchebag player and it felt great, but I feel dirty donating it to my friends.
