Hmm, not a fan of this. its semi useful late in the game, but much better nonbasic lands out there to give you a red mana or two.

Gotta say I'm not particularly fond of this guy. There's plenty of ways to get 2 damage that don't involve saccing a land, and I'm not fond of lands that charge me 1 life per turn for doing nothing more than a mountain does. I can see it being useful in the right deck (maybe a dreadge/life from the loam?), but I don't think this F&L basic burn deck is it.

If they'd taken the tap requirement out of the second ability, so you could power its kamikaze with its own mana, that'd make for interesting interactions.

I'd rather pack fireblast and not have to eat the 1 damage ping every time I tap the land... because that can be pretty annoying early game.

Okay, I am doing to do this on this card as well. I already commented on Sapseep Forest. Before you get your pants in a jiffy for linking to a Green mana source card, I might point out that they new Werewolf type is GreenRed that relays on both filling the grave (in some builds) and playing a limited number of spells per turn.

Benefits: One of the few special land that DOESN'T come into play tapped, meaning it won't slow you down at all just for having it out first turn other then that one damage. In mid-late game, you can ditch a Red mana to deal 2 points of damage to anything on the board, great for killing off weak utility and other such cards.

Weakness: The one damage every time you tape it for Mana adds up. By the time you actually have 7 cards in the Graveyard, there will more then likely be turn 4 or 5, meaning you have given a 4 or 5 handicap over to your opponent for using this first turn, but it's usefulness is more for the "Burn 2 per turn"... (see all)
