It will see play with Cloudpost... Cloudpost + Vesuva + Glimmerpost + Thespian's Stage = 16 post. Which is better than 12. Since you can tap it for mana as soon as it enters play without paying anything, it's still a good enough land with nothing to copy or not enough mana to do so. For the record, all 16 lands out would give you 148 mana. JUST FROM YOUR LANDS.
I don't really see the point of printing this when they banned the 12-post strategy in Modern for being broken, and anyone just looking for multicolored lands has much better options.

Lol, I like how some fools think this is better than Vesuva. I have news for them: Tectonic Edge is not better than Strip Mine.
It might not be OBVIOUS to everyone, but let me point out quickly why Vesuva is better: the mana cost. Lands are SO often made quite superior by their Mana Cost: 0 yet the non-basics essentially give you spells. Non-basic lands are like Planeswalker abilities, almost. While it's true that some mana-activated ones are good (like Kessig Wolf Run, and sure, yeah, Thespian's Stage is good, just...)
Vesuva comes down as a 0CMC-destroy target legendary land, and it steals other lands FOR FREE if you are willing to wait and time it right. For the extra 'freedom' of being able to be wherever you want whenever you want, Thespian's Stage costs 3 MANA to do Vesuva's trick.
Is this a good card in EDH? Absolutely. Is this a good card in 16-post? Lolz! XD But if I was told to pick BETWEEN this and Vesuva? No... (see all)

@milez0
Vesuva sees legacy play, this thing will never. First of all, Vesuva does it for free. Also, if you are building a deck that intends to abuse stuff like Cloudpost, you don't need to copy more than one land, so being able to copy another thing is irrelevant, although it does make for an interesting design
