@yesnomu You're not wrong..but it only works once :/ cuz every other time, it'll already be tapped, and even then, you still lose a land. So it works, but it's kind of a bad idea.

The silhouette demons make me want to laugh more than cower.
I checked, and I wasn't surprised to find this artist is the one also responsible for Word of Command's illustration. He wouldn't have had to give up using only a flat black background had he not made the demons so flat and black.

@voyager1: Jasper Myrfors also drew Elves of Deep Shadow from The Dark. You know, the good-looking ones.
So it's a stylistic choice, rather than an inability to draw.

This card led to the first time I felt the urge to flip a table.
Turn 1: Opp drops swamp, Dark Ritual, Hypnotic Specter
Turn 2: Swamp, Mox Jet, Dark Ritual x2, This effing thing.

I came here specifically to put up yesnomu's comment, but he already did! (You can tap in response to the ability), so instead I'll put ideas that create interesting "combos"
Rain of Filth, Hellcarver Demon, Rakdos, Devastating Summons, or any other cards that might incidentally kill your lands happen to accidentally work with this guy as you'll run out of things to lose.

yesnomu.
Heheh, that could be fun - play a game, win the dice toss or whatever and go first, get Demonic Hordes out T1, and watch as the game goes on infinitely, with nothing actually being done since you're destroying each others only lands each turn. .
Obviously not foolproof against some decks, but hilarious nonetheless where it can be done.

@yesnomu:
Yes, that's how it works these days.
But a long time ago, cards with upkeep costs couldn't be activated until the cost was paid.
