I got a new deck in the works and I'm a bit on the lazy side. Anyone know some good blue/white dual lands I can use.

welcome back to the board!!! ;D And in fact I do know a blue/white dual. Glacial FortressIts the closest you'll get to the original duals without actually buying one. These are in 10th, 11th, and 12th. They sell for about $9 at Pastimes and I'm seeing them for a $1 or $2 on CardShark.

I'll look through my binder because I may have one of those actually. Anything else you looking for or thinking of putting in the deck?

It's a semi control blue/white deck. No counters or bouncing cards though. I could do with some pasifisims though.

I'll see if I have any. I may have a Pacifism or two now that I think about it.

Makes things easier than opening magic workstation to filter lands.

Makes things easier than opening magic workstation to filter lands. I have to update that on my computer and install it all together on another. Do you pay for it or do you just use the free version? I really hate how you can't solo play your decks against each other in the free mode.

I use the free version. I was tempted to buy it till I seen the high registration price. I mainly use it for deck building since it contains errata. Marton Stromgald is considered a knight now. Since it was never reprinted to say as such I would have ened up missing that for my red knight deck.

Coastal Tower is the winner in this list. There are a couple other good lands but nit for 3 bucks each. Tundra was 102 on moxdiamond.com

Yeah the original dual lands are far from cheap. Recently they have spiked in price.

Coastal Tower is good after the first turn. I can't believe I forgot about those, since I use them in one of my decks. Only thing is since they come in tapped, you lose a little bit of speed. Since blue is already a pretty slow color (and white can be too depending on what kind of deck) that can be doubly painful.
But on the plus side, that's exactly why they weren't ever popular in tournaments and therefore aren't very expensive.

Average mana cost of stuff is fairly low so it shouldn't be too bad. Elfhame Palace failed in the now dismantled elephant deck because the average casting cost was about 5.

I found Glacial Fortress going for about 3 bucks.
