Great Whale, Creature — whale, designed by Bob Eggleton first released in Oct, 1998 in the set Urza's Saga. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 22 combos.
Great Whale would be a valuable addition to a deck focused on ramping up mana quickly, such as a blue control deck or a combo deck that requires a lot of mana to be effective. While Great Whale's ability to untap up to seven lands can provide a significant mana advantage, there are more efficient options available, such as Palinchron or Peregrine Drake, which have lower mana costs and can generate infinite mana with certain combos. Overall, Great Whale could see play in specific decks that benefit from its untapping ability, but there are better alternatives for achieving similar effects more efficiently.

You choose which lands to untap as the triggered ability resolves. They aren’t targeted, and they don’t have to be lands that you control.
