Each Time Spiral card was an homage to at least one previously printed card.
The card references Overrun as well as the so-called "domain" mechanic from Invasion block, such as Planar Despair, that counted different land types (the mechanic was given an ability word name "Domain" when it was bought back again in Conflux on such cards as Exploding Borders.)

I give it 3/5 just for using the word tromp.

I love the ruling that the creatures "don't get trample for each basic land type".
Brilliant :)

The "Best" that it can give is +5/+5 (+1 for each of the five basic land types) In addition to trample.
The only problem with this in constructed is that the best kind of mana-fixing is to include a gratuitous amount of non-basic lands.
