Urborg, Legendary land, designed by Bryon Wackwitz first released in Jun, 1994 in the set Legends and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Duel Commander.
This card would benefit a mono-black control deck looking to fix its mana base and provide additional utility. While Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth is a solid choice for such a deck, there are potentially better options like Cabal Coffers for ramp or Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx for mana generation in mono-black decks. Whether Urborg should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, but its ability to provide consistent black mana and minor utility makes it a viable inclusion in certain builds.

Urborg’s second ability affects only the first strike ability, not the part of the double strike ability that acts like first strike.

You choose whether the targeted creature loses first strike or swampwalk as the ability resolves. If the creature has both abilities, it will lose just one of them.

The ability can be used on a creature without First Strike or Swampwalk but has no effect.
