Lands lose existing subtypes when the land has its subtype changed.

November 29, 2010February 5, 2015 | krizriktr

When a land has it’s subtype changed into a basic land type it will lose all of its text and will gain the text the appropriate mana ability.  This does not happen with effects (like Stormtide Leviathan’s) that grant lands an additional basic land subtype.
