Cyclopean Giant references this.

With all of the swampwalking creatures around, this could actually be a really fun card to build a deck around. Black has tons of high-damage Swampwalk, so you could really mess someone up with this. The fact that their lands are slowly losing color type doesn't hurt either.
4/5

raptorman333: Not true. It's a mono artifact which meant that you had to tap it as part of the cost to activate it. This cards latest printing was before the time of the tap symbol. Revised Edition did away with the old mono, poly, and continuous terminology and brought along with it the innovation of the tap symbol.

The redundant text makes it so you don't have to remove again if an opponent destroys your first and your second puts one on a newly cleaned land. It is necessary to replicate the original effect.

Permanent is always different after it has been destroyed and then brought back to the battlefield. So you still remove the mire counters for the first instance and he can put new ones on using the second instance. If you destroy the Tomb second time the second instance mire counters start to be removed.
What's so complicated about that?

Neat effect, though confusing since it's one of those things that doesn't fit well into the modern understanding of the game. Still a cool card.

the oracle text is a million times more confusing than the original text.

I'd say just a thousand times more confusing, not a million.

Doesn't it mean that if you return Cyclopean Tomb to the battlefield, you can put a mire counter on lands that have already had one removed and those mire counters can't be removed ever?
On another note, what kind of madman created this card?
