About Delay the Collapse
Delay the Collapse, Landmark permanent, first released in September 2026 in the set Roots of Corruption.
Delay the Collapse is best suited to an Ordis deck built specifically around Landmarks with a high combined Hand Cost—ideally one that can establish several expensive Landmarks early while reliably passing—because it turns that investment into repeatable Resupply and eventually replaces itself; however, it is a narrow build-around rather than a generally efficient permanent, since needing 6 total Hand Cost in Landmarks and then passing makes its payoff slow and conditional. In most conventional Ordis lists, more immediately impactful permanents or cards that directly develop your expedition, create board presence, or provide reliable card advantage will be preferable, so Delay the Collapse should only see play in a dedicated Landmark-heavy strategy where reaching the threshold is consistent, not as a staple or default inclusion.
