Not sure where to post this honestly.

1. I have a Flagstones of Trokair (time spiral rare that says if this card is put into the graveyard from the Battlefield that I can get a plains card and put it in the battlefield tapped. My question is this: If I cast Scapeshift, which reads sacrifice any number of lands, search your library for that many land cards and put them in play tapped, does that mean that I'd get an extra land?

My thinking is: The Scapeshift gets a land for the Flagstones, and the Flagstones' ability triggers and that gets you a second land. So, if you started out with 4 lands sacrificed to Scapeshift, you'd end up with 5 total lands. And stop me if I am wrong, but, if you got 3 flagstones, they'd trigger and you'd have 8 lands in play after that (5 after Scapeshift resolves + 3 more when the Flagstones trigger). That strikes me as pretty good.

LMK if that works.

Also, is there anything I can read about how long your trade list can be? I have tried to load my collection and I can't seem to do that. And I can't seem to load a want list either. Any reading I can do would be awesome.
thanks
Dan

Flagstone is legendary, you cannot sac 3 of it with + 2 other land with scapeshift to fetch 8 land.

What you can do, is sac 5 normal land, fetching 3 flagstone + 2 normal land. Legendary flagstone will trigger and you will get another 3 plains card.

For a total of 5 land in play

*Note*
If you sac a flagstone to scapeshift, the flagstone will resolve after the resolution of scapeshift and not *as the same time*.
