Lots of fun in a turbofog deck alongside stuff like Howling Mine.

I don't see this as a very good politics card, but it is a nice "leave me alone and I'll give you goodstuff" card. Could be nice in phelddagrif decks, I don't know.

Even without some way of offsetting the drawback, this is a handy card. The ability to accelerate your game in an aggro deck? Priceless.
Plus, it's just an all around neat card, with great art and that particular fun Kamigawa flavor of a world with a whole lotta stories to tell.

Yes, the second ability can help your opponents out, but this card has a lot of things going for it.

1.Non-basic lands with abilities often enter the battlefield tapped, cards such as Halimar Depths for example.
2. Fits into any deck, provided the {1} generated won't set you back due to spells with colour-intensive cast costs, such as Primalcrux with its {G}{G}{G}{G}{G}{G} cost.
3. Gives recurring, instant speed card draw, in any colour. Something colours like {R} and {G} are terribly lacking.
4. The draw for your opponent can be turned against them, with cards such as Underworld Dreams or cards that give you even more card advantages such as Consecrated Sphinx
5. Fits in any EDH deck quite nicely.

The only other fault is the fact that it is Legendary, which means its quite a bit more vulnerable than other non-basic lands.

Had a place as the only nonbasic in my old owling mine deck. If i was going to cerebral vortex o sudden impact i wanted them to have the card. Also agree with whoever says this is good with consecrated sphinx, although temple bell would be a good alternative to keep a little extra mana.
