Nice synergy with Borborygmos 2.0 and Life from the Loam.

Compared to the original, this guy now looks less Countryside and more Crusher. Although giving him new art probably was a good decision, I'll miss the old hick.

I like this art more than the old one, but I can see why some people still prefer the old one.
Anyways, I have a question. Does this card basically say 'you will never draw a land again'?
The way I am reading it, it says you only mill the card if it is a land and therefore, a non-land that gets revealed will stay on top of the deck, and you will draw it. It could be both good and bad, but I think it would be a good way to smooth out late-game draws if that is indeed the way it works.
Thanks in advance.

This was the first rare I pulled in a MMA draft the other day, and it started a very fun and surprisingly synergistic giant tribal deck. Suddenly, those Crush Underfoots people kept handing me didn't suck so much anymore.

For a goblin aggro deck that tops out at 3 CMC, this is amazing. Fervor? Or maybe Manabarbs deck?

I love him for the same reason as Goblin Charbelcher;
Doing stupid, impressively scary things with land manipulation.

Doesn't seam very smart to T3 drop this guy unless everything else is ultra cheap...
3/5 Stars

@Buderus:
That combo with Library of Leng wouldn't work. The first ruling listed on Library of Leng specifically says that "This effect has no effect on the cards being put into the graveyard from a library, because they are not 'discarded.'" In other words, the Library won't let you retrieve the cards sent to the graveyard by the Crusher. And even if that ruling didn't exist, it still wouldn't work, because the Crusher's ability only triggers when the land card actually hits the graveyard, which the Library prevents from happening. It's a nice thought to combine the two, but it just wouldn't work.

@RetroGamer3: There are people who collect Magic cards for trading who literally never play, and they're welcome to post on Gatherer. Don't be surprised when someone likes the game for a different reason than you do.
Also bear in mind this is a reprint, so many people know the mechanics like the back of their hand but have never seen this art before.

Wow, finally a card that has warm and soft combo potential with Wood Elemental.
