Love using this to sacrifice Flagstones of Trokair for 2 basic lands from Harrow and a (potentially) non-basic land from such as Temple Garden or Godless Shrine
Watch out for those counterspells though.

What you people are missing is the fact that it's an instant, and all other ramp is sorcery speed

Shadow of Doubt for those who don't just want to counter it, but make the opponent wish they hadn't cast it.

@TongueSlicer:
You can't do that. Harrow doesn't sac a target land upon resolution. Terramorphic Expanse would be sacrificed immediately as part of Harrow's casting cost. Paying the casting cost of a spell can't be interrupted, therefore you couldn't tap Terramorphic Expanse for its land search ability.
If T.E. read "when this card is sacrificed" or "when this card is put into a graveyard from play" or something, then you could do what you're asking. As it stands T.E. has to tap and sacrifice itself to activate its land search ability, which is a payment separate from being sacrificed to pay for Harrow.
Assuming you could interrupt the casting cost of Harrow, when it came time to pay it you would have to sacrifice a different land, or else the spell would be countered.

@Speednat: Wizards is very specific in their wording for cards. It doesn't say tapped, so they don't enter tapped. Problem solved.
I'm really split between liking this or the Zendikar art better. Both are so good.

is it possible to sacrifice one of the lands you tapped to pay harrow's mana cost?
