Pretty good spell at instant speed. I'd prefer if it was a 4 drop that only destroyed one or the other but that might get a bit too broken. Really good in land destruction EDH (annoying archtype though).

Extremely good. It is instand land destruction or creature removal that flat-out buries the target... and it's red! Very playable even today in Commander.

Expensive, sure, but it's the only red removal I know of that isn't damage based. Maybe a useful sideboard for big creatures that red has no other way of dealing with.

It's also an instant, how many other land destruction spells are instants?

Solid for casual decks or Commander. Killing lands is often a necessity in Commander, since certain lands can make or break the game. At the same time, if no such land is in play, strict LD spells are mostly useless. This takes care of that, by combining great creature kill (instant, no restrictions, no regen) with ld.

It's good in my pauper mono red control land destruction deck. I think its too slow for most other types of builds except I can see it as useful in commander. The Instant is good tech if they don't play a creature you have the option to off a land.
