wotc1 Feb 2009
The affected land loses its existing land types and any abilities printed on it. It becomes the chosen basic land type and now has the ability to tap to add one mana of the appropriate color. Unstable Frontier's ability doesn't change the affected land's name or whether it's legendary or basic.
