This thing exiles opponent's lands? Ooh, I think I just found another Rite Of Replication target!

Besides that, this is the best Insect creature card with Imprint in the entire game.

Not bad. In Commander/EDH, I always prefer permanents with enter-the-battlefield effects over one-shot cards. That will be some solid addition.
3.5/5

On the very short list of land destructions that cost more than 4 I'll consider playing.

Having opened almost a playset of them already, I'll be looking for a deck to fit 'em into... I have another deck that runs a couple of Zo-Zu the Punishers, and I always enjoy playing him, so I sort of look at this guy in the same way. He's more limited in terms of who he'll ping, but he does have the upside of removing a land for good... and once he has done that, I'll never feel too terrible in a multiplayer setting if someone burns a removal spell on him.

He happens to look a lot like a mosquito! I almost wish he had flying, to complete the imagery. I'm suddenly struck with the urge to play him and equip him with a Grafted Exoskeleton... maybe make it a RedBlack deck with some Swamp Mosquitoes as well, and call it WestNile.dec!

Sure, anti-Valakut, except, you know, Lightning Bolt. Or drop one mountain, fry this, and then combo out. Yeah, this won't be doing anything in constructed (to that effect, at least).
In limited, though, this card benefits immensely from the slow format; you can always cut your opponent off from mana, but if you land this on-curve, it will not only slow down your opponent, but will also create a veritable threat that they will need to waste a removal spell on if they want to get above 4 or 5 mana w/o taking like 6 damage. If I already had at least one great red card, I'd take this as early as 5th pick.

Did anyone mention that this is a lot better than Avalanche Riders?
