Sadly, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle is not, strictly, a mountain. With Blood Moon or Magus of the Moon it is, but once either of those are on the field, then totally yes: explode that it-ought-to-be-legendary-permanent.
And I like to imagine that Hira, Street Oracle is either the lady on Magma Jet or actually a Flamespeaker Adept. Whatever the case, I haven't chuckled at a piece of sarcastic flavor text like this since the days of Jaya Ballard.

Steam Vents
Sacred Foundry
Stomping Ground
Blood Crypt
Target any of those and laugh. Great sideboard card against control or ramp, or really any deck that runs shocks in spades.
5/5

You gotta hand it to Hira, (s)he(?) knows what (s)he(?)'s talking about...
Anyway, very cool sidegrade of Stone Rain, and devastating with Blood Moon.

A restricted Stone Rain with a Lava Spike strapped to it. I like it.
Put it in your Blood Moon deck and rejoice with me.

No one is impressed with 3 cmc land destruction? This is supposed to be special, or something.

This card is the best answer of Red Decks in standard to Chained To The Rocks.
It destroys the mountain that was enchanted by Chained To The Rocks, -1 mana for you.
Destroys the enchantment, things that Red Decks hardly does. -1 enchantment for you.
It deals 3 damage to the land+enchantment owner and returns my exiled creature (Strombreath Dragon) to the battlefield.
I want 4 on my EVIL sideboard please. 3:) 3:D
@Kulnaro
Because my Stormbreath Dragon was target of the turn half of Turn / Burn, so it's protection from White disappeared.
but I got your intention Evil guy

Oh god, this simply must be used on a Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle someday.
