I don't see why wizards didn't reprint this in the new Ravnica block, it practically belongs in there - in the old Ravnica, this guy was a potential answer to the tons of shock lands seeing play, now in standard there are so many dual lands/shock lands/fetch lands that most players don't even bother with basic lands anymore, which is shameful because the focus of the game should not be to have the most expensive mana-base possible.
That being said, this is an awesome card in vintage zombie decks - if you can get him in the grave on T-1, you can animate dead on T-2 and he can start cracking lands by T-3, at which point you can potentially keep your opponent under pressure for the rest of the game if he doesn't fall to removal.

Brutal to create a lockdown. Imagine:
T1- Putrid Imp
T2- Discard any 4+ dredger, dredge it
T3- Do that again, Cabal Ritual, tap your last swamp for 1, this guy
If they don't remove him now; they'll be losing a land every turn! That said, Dust Bowl is the tournament-colorless-version of this guy

this is the capstone creature in my mono black land destruction deck. just a tad lower toughness than some other 6 cmc giants, but it's a solid beater with an awesome activation.
4.5/5

This card was originally a large, bland, vanilla, hole-fill post-development creation. Brady Dommermuth hail-mary'd the name. When Development saw the name, they decided to make the card more powerful.
