Dies to shatter? It'll have done its job and won you the game before shatter can be cast with mana acceleration.
And I know you're were being tongue-in-cheek. I just dislike that people really believe that bunk.

When magic first came out, I once held in my hands an all beta and alpha deck that consisted of nothing but mox ruby, lightning bolt and wheel of fortune. it was worth $200 at the time.

Ultimate land Fix, this is why its banned.
4 Mox Emerald
4 Mox Jet
4 Mox Pearl
4 Mox Ruby
4 Mox Sapphire
4 Black Lotus
4 Tolarian Academy
Imagine on T1 you pull 3 moxes, a lotus, and an academy. Thats 10 mana and you would be doing shit like that all the time. Just make every deck you play run this and insane broken card atvantage.

A quick lesson in Moxes....
Moxes are power people, I've used them all, even before the restricting rules came out. Why are the moxes powerful? well on their own each mox is a boost for speed mana, which is powerful (not broken) what makes them broken is using all 5 in the same deck, plus those newer ones Diamond, Opal and the Chrome.
it's like playing 4 lightning bolts, you draw 1 and bolt the guy he's at 17 (still alot of life) you play another from your opening hand he's at 14, the more bolts the more effective the resault. The same goes for Moxes, when your opening hand is..
Mox Ruby, Any land, Mox Diamond, any other land, Wheel of Fortune, (and 2 whatever cards, could be counterspell and Force of Will)
you drop a land, drop the Ruby , drop the Diamond and ditch a land, tap then play Wheel
You just hosed your opponent, they discard 7 and you both draw 7 new cards. At this point you've only played 2 moxes out of 8 (1 copy of each in the deck plus a Lotus) what are y... (see all)

And that's all you say? You could have at least added a 'what an awesome card!' after.
Someone did comment on the beta version before this. I kinda wish comments were shown for all printings on one page.

You can't play two Mountains on your first turn, though.

Read: Compare to Mountain unless Valakut, The Molten Pinnacle is in play.
