I'm surprised this doesn't have a higher rating. It's one of those cards that is strong enough for constructed but also fits fine in casual land destruction decks that have gone heavy black with sinkhole, blight, befoul, random discard etc

This would also work well with a swamp walk deck... the bonus damage really makes this close to sinkhole (the most broken common ever, certainly the most valuable($))

Sinkhole + choking sands + rain of tears + befoul + strip mine + ...

With everyone running non-basics, this is an excellent land kill spell, and a good setup for bloodthirst...in a casual deck, of course.

This would perhaps be useful if I didnt see Urborg, tomb of yawg everywhere.
not that it matters in the deck that would run this. Blow Urborg up, then use this to take out coffers.
I myself am a fan of monogreen LD though.

Cheap enough to possibly cripple an opponent early. Combined with black's classic hand removal it's a pretty strong spell.

Wizards please return black land destruction at 3 CMC.

What is casual LD? If you start to play LD in our circles on casual play no-one will play against you.
