Great lockdown card, if the deck is designed properly. I'd go with bouncing over land destruction, seeing as how bouncing cards, such as Boomerang, are more common and cheaper to cast than most land destruction cards, such as Stone Rain and Winter's Grasp.
For anyone who doesn't understand how good this card is: it's banned in EDH.

this is pretty for white weenies against decks needing high mana..
decks filled with white knights, soltari monk, soltari priest et al... awesome...
itd even be useful as a control... just destroy a land each turn and in 5 turns, so long as you put down a land each turn, its a sealed deal...

Perfect for a weenie deck. You can even shut your opponent down by gaining land and keeping their mana limited.

Combine this with Manabond and a deck with a lot of lands that become creatures. You can lock your opponent into 2-3 lands while putting out every land you draw at the end of your turn.

This card is very fun in multiplayer free for all games (with 4 or more people). First turn you pop this out, tell people what it does, and you can see the hatred in their eyes.

The best LD spell ever. Made for a Dingus Egg. Techs with Planar Birth.

Seems really fun in 2-headed giant. 10 lands among 4 people? Bit of green land acceleration and land destruction, and you have achieved a lock. Or how about a 10-player game? LOL!

In a four person multiplayer game, I played this, followed by Armageddon. Needless to say, they asked me to change my deck or stop playing. :)

A straight up Johnny card if there ever was one.
