New Challenge Every Day - January 25th: a new dual land that would be part of a cycle for the mechanic

[void_nothing]

Today's Challenge: a new dual land that would be part of a cycle for the mechanic such as the surveil ones coming from MKM

.::To Enter::.
In a single post:

• Name exactly two other players to vote for their entries for the previous challenge. (In the event that there are two or fewer entries that you are allowed to vote for, you may vote for only one.)

• Make a card that fits the current challenge.

• Include an "If I Win" (IIW) for tomorrow's challenge if you win.

Each day we use the challenge of the previous day's winner. In the case of a tie, we'll use the IIW of the tied player who has least overall points. In case of a further tie, the IIW of the earlier poster will be used.

Ah, I missed the word "Instant" in yesterday's challenge. Made a sorcery instead.

I don't know if it qualifies as classical, but I'm picking Reply of Zaporozhian Cossacks as my favorite.

Ok. Thank you @somedue1019
I remember learning about Guernica by Pablo Picasso in school. I never saw it in person but if you ever are in DC the same gallery Watson and the Shark is at, the National Gallery, some of his earlier paintings. His Family of Saltimbanques from 1905 is huge.

Recap my votes are LandellXil0cent , Luci

Watson and the Shark 1UR
Enchantment — Saga (rare)
(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter. Sacrifice after III.)
I - Create a 2/3 blue Shark token creature with Hexproof.
II - Target creature you control fights up to one target creature you don't control. If your chosen creature is a Shark and isn't destroyed, you may draw a card and then discard a card.
III - Exile this saga, then return it transformed under your control.

Lord Brook Watson
Legendary Creature — Human Artificer
T, Sacrifice a nontoken artifact: Create a Treasure token and scry 1.
Treasures you control have "t: Sacrifice this artifact: Add CC to your mana pool. Use this mana only to cast artifact spells or pay for the activated abilities of artifacts."
1/3

Cut and paste from Wikipedia. (Not sure if outside nonMTG links are allow. Also though SFW it has I don't know if I can post the image. Watson is nude but doesn't show NSFW and isn't violent. )

" Watson and the Shark is an oil painting by the Anglo-American painter John Singleton Copley, depicting the rescue of the English boy Brook Watson from a shark attack in Havana, Cuba. Copley, then living in London, painted three versions, which are all now in the United States. The 1778 version is in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. A second, full-size 1778 replica is now in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and a third, smaller, 1782 version with a more vertical composition is in the Detroit Institute of Arts.
The original version, now in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., United States, 1778, 182.1 × 229.7 cm
The paintings are based on an attack that took place in Havana harbour in 1749. Brook Watson, then a 14-year-old cabin boy on the Royal Consort,[1] lost his right leg below the knee in the attack, and was not rescued until the third attempt, which is the subject of the painting.[2] Watson, having had a military career and become a successful merchant, commissioned the painting from Copley a quarter of century after the event. Watson went on to be chairman of Lloyd's of London, a Member of Parliament, and Lord Mayor of London."
