Very good color-hatred card, worthy of a sideboard slot. When you get it early enough, it will hurt, particularly against multi-colored decks that NEED the land.

For a spell that is less picky about the land it is enchanting, take a look at Psychic Venom.

3.5/5

Okay for a sideboard, but it only works on a Forest or Plains. Maybe useful against a Plains, but green decks kind of SPECIALIZE in getting mana to power up their huge creatures in ways other than using lands! (Hence druids, Llanowar Elves, etc. etc.)

still fun to do turn two or three on a person playing naya or bant. It's not like they will never use one of those forests or plains

I like this card a lot for a sideboard. If you're going against a multicolored deck that doesn't have many alternate sources of mana but has splashed green or white, its great to get some early damage in on them.

Funny card, not particularly useful except in very early game, but still... I like it...

It may be becuase its slightly under costed at a single black mana, but IDK...

I love this card, i once enchanted a forest and plains by turn two while he played llanowar elves and druid of the anima, then i used infest and watched him cry as he killed himself slowly for the next 5 turns...

Eh. If you want to play GW hate for 1 black mana, try Deathmark instead.

"For a spell that is less picky about the land it is enchanting, take a look at" Pooling Venom or Contaminated Ground.

Grossly underrated at 2.5/5

Quite good pseudo land removal for 1 mana. Solid side-board. GW aggro is a common limited deck, too.
