It also gives an opponent who is mad you've taken the lead lots of opportunities to drag things out. In a videogame it can make for a stop-start experience where you have to click Next or Pass repeatedly just to let the game know you don't want to interrupt during this phase, and no, not the next one either (although pressing shift-enter lets you skip to the end). At the table this promotes a snappy back and forth. Spells marked instant can be cast with leftover mana on an opponent's turn. The other thing that's always been a part of Magic is interrupts. However, when I have one of those games where I don't draw enough land cards to do anything even though there's 24 in this deck of 60 (which happens often enough that conspiracy theorists are convinced the shuffling algorithm is broken), suddenly nostalgia dries up and I realize maybe simplifying this into "one more mana each turn" was actually a good idea. Something about putting down land at the start of my turn and then tapping it turns a valve that releases high-grade uncut nostalgia right into my nasal mucosa. Most cards require at least one mana of an appropriate color, and some extra that can be any flavor.
Forests give green mana, swamps give black, islands blue, etc. One is that rather than simply gaining mana every turn you have to play land cards, then tap them-tilting them at a slight angle rather than the regulation 90 degrees of the tabletop version, mercy me-for their colored mana. Despite the similarities (spending mana to play cards, faces with life points that have to be smacked away by summoned creatures, creatures on the edge of the board you click to see a cute animation), a few of the bumps Hearthstone smoothed over will catch your feet.
